I was reading the following page, about the modifications needed to a web
site to make it work ok with Windows XP SP2.  In my case, not many of the
issues affect me, because I don't use a lot of _javascript_ and don't use
popup windows much.  I can easily get rid of them where I have used them.

However two little bits of information in this page caused me some alarm.

What do the rest of you think of these two little gems?

Q: Does your Web site launch pop-up windows through other objects (e.g.,
Macromedia Flash movies)?
A: These pop-up blocker blocks these pop-up windows. There is no workaround.

Does this mean that flash is no longer going to work in IE and will no
longer be permitted?    What will be required to make our flash movies work?

Q: What does Internet Explorer consider a pop-up window?
Internet Explorer will attempt to block any window opened automatically
from:
A script, with the exception of createPopup().
Modal and modeless dialogs.
DHTML elements overlapping content on the page
[/quote]

Does this mean that the DHTML menus I spent so much time getting to work are
going to have to be replaced with something else?
