<h1 id="controlling_popups">Controlling Popups</h1>
|
|
|
|
<p><strong>What are Popups?</strong></p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Pop-up windows, or popups, are windows that appear automatically and without
|
|
your permission. They vary in size, but usually don't cover the whole
|
|
screen. Some popups open on top of the current Navigator window, thus popping
|
|
up, while others appear underneath Navigator (popunders).</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>&brandShortName; allows you to control both popups and popunders through the
|
|
<a href="#privacy_and_security_preferences_popup_windows">Popup Windows
|
|
preferences panel</a>. Since popup blocking is turned off by default, you
|
|
must enable it to prevent popups from appearing in Navigator.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>When blocking a popup, &brandShortName; can be set up to play a sound, as
|
|
well as display an icon
|
|
<img src="chrome://navigator/skin/icons/popup-blocked.png" alt="Popup control
|
|
icon"/> in the status bar. You can use this icon to add a website
|
|
you're viewing to an exceptions list so that the site is allowed to
|
|
again display popups.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p><strong>Blocking popups may interfere with some websites</strong>: Some web
|
|
sites, including some banking sites, use popups for important features.
|
|
Blocking all popups disables such features. To allow specific websites to
|
|
use popups, while blocking all others, you can add specific websites to the
|
|
list of allowed sites. For more information, see
|
|
<a href="#privacy_and_security_preferences_popup_windows">Privacy &
|
|
Security Preferences - Popup Windows</a>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p><strong>Blocking popups doesn't always work</strong>: Although
|
|
&brandShortName; blocks most popups, some websites, even when blocked, may
|
|
use other methods to show popups.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p><strong>Allowing popups from certain websites</strong>: After you've
|
|
enabled popup blocking, you can still allow specific sites to display popups.
|
|
Browse to the website, and then from the Tools menu, choose Popup Manager,
|
|
and then choose Allow Popups From This Site.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The next section describes how to control popups through preferences and
|
|
through the popup control icon.</p>

|
|
|
<h2 id="privacy_and_security_preferences_popup_windows">Privacy & Security

<h3>When a popup window has been blocked</h3>
|
|
|
|

|
|
<li><strong>Play a sound</strong>: If you want a sound to play each time

|

|
|
sound file.
|
|

|
|
<li><strong>Select</strong>: Click this to choose a sound file instead of
|
|
typing its location in the field.</li>
|
|
<li><strong>Preview</strong>: Click this to listen to the chosen
|
|
sound.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|

|
|
to display an icon
|
|
<img src="chrome://navigator/skin/icons/popup-blocked.png" alt="Popup control

|
|
|
|
<p><strong>Note</strong>: After the popup control icon
|
|
<img src="chrome://navigator/skin/icons/popup-blocked.png" alt="Popup
|
|
control icon"/> appears, it remains visible until you visit another
|
|
website.</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p><strong>Using the popup control icon to add allowed websites</strong>: You
|
|
can use the popup control icon to quickly add a website to the list of
|
|
allowed websites. Click the icon
|
|
<img src="chrome://navigator/skin/icons/popup-blocked.png" alt="Popup control
|
|
icon"/> to open the list of allowed websites. The current website is
|
|
already filled in. Click Add and then click OK to confirm your addition.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p><strong>Note</strong>: Blocking popups may not always work and may interfere
|
|
with some websites. For more information about blocking popups, see
