Turning on popup blocker shouldn't block user initiated clicks that call a
js function to open a new window. Or, popup blocker should allow for a
simple getURL("url", "_blank"). I'm finding these calls are being blocked
some cases in Firefox on PC's with flash player 9.
The Flash Player is a browser plugin (and presumably looks like a black
box to the browser), so when e.g. Firefox gets a request to open a new
window from the Flash Player, it probably can't tell whether this
request is user initiated (thus legit) or not, so the blocker kicks in
and blocks it. At least that's my theory (i definately don't know the
technical details), so someone please correct me if i'm wrong.
Cheers,
