Your latest change seems to have broken your script. db50d4 through 29821e work for me, but 2cbd27 does not.

Thanks @kylecronin for the hint. There was a misplaced parenthesis, which is now fixed.

This works fine. Just doesnt handle browser sessions. It would be great to load it only once in one session.

This is working fine. unable to handle browser session. Can you help me out in loading once per browser session.

You should take a look at: https://gist.github.com/2058263. When setting a cookie without expiresAt, it will be removed at the end of the browser-session.

Hi hpbuniat,

That code has a cookie timer. What do I set to disable:
$.cookies.set(name, cookie, {
expiresAt: new Date((new Date()).getTime() + blockTime * 3600000)
});

I removed 3600000 and blockTime, but that is not what I was supposed to do I guess. I am not good with Javascript.

Is it possible to make popunder windows "self close"?

@ssolinas
Copy link

If is self close and is pop under why you opened it in the first place_

@ssolinas
Copy link

That's fraud, but if is about cookie you can use an iframe on the actual page and is easier.
Anyway, do a timeout that close the window. The main problem is that you can't open the window without a user click action (iframe has no problem about that).
Also, if you want to do that randomize the window size and the seconds before close, if everyone from your website has the same window size or stay for the same time it will seems strange.

Thanks so much, I panicked when I saw that the pop under script wasn't working any longer on the new Chrome update, but you've pwnt it again! Great Job!

rclai commented Aug 10, 2012

The reason that it stopped working on the new Chrome was that it no longer had variable for

window.mozPaintCount

So now they have

navigator.webkitGetUserMedia

?

Great work. But it displays as Popup instead of Pop-under in Firefox 15.0 on Mac OS. Any fixes?

I love the script, works perfectly on its own, but when trying to integrate it to my script nothing happens.
This is my script:


background:#ccc;text-align

:
Song Artist:
Song Title:
Song Album: ()
<script type='text/javascript' src='/player/swfobject.js'></script>
This text will be replaced
<script type='text/javascript'> var so = new SWFObject('/player/player.swf','mpl','420','24','9'); so.addParam('allowfullscreen','true'); so.addParam('allowscriptaccess','always'); so.addParam('wmode','opaque'); so.addVariable('duration',''); so.addVariable('file',''); so.addVariable('autostart','true'); so.write('mp3player'); </script>

What i am trying to do is when a user click the "Request Download or Streaming Ticket" button, it would trigger the popunder.

Can you help ?

@emccolgan

In the current version of Google Chrome (21.0.1180.89) if the tab the pop under is originating from is not the last tab then the focus jumps to the next tab along. I think this is because in Chrome when you close a tab that has focus then the focus jumps to the next tab after the one that is being closed. I'm not sure if this issue existed in previous versions of Chrome.

Chrome 22 not working: popunder become pop up

Chrome 22: the popunder works the first time then it's always a pop up. Anyone else notice the same thing and is there any work around?

msams commented Oct 16, 2012

Sorry looks like its one of my extensions that causing it to popup. Works fine on other Chrome 22 installations.

@thimoten

For me, on Chrome 22 it also opens as a popup instead of popunder. :/
It was working on previous Chrome versions though.

I'm not longer updating the gist, because i created a repo for this:
https://github.com/hpbuniat/jquery-popunder

This version works on most chrome 22 installations, but it's not perfect yet. I'm still tinkering ;)

Hi,

I am Asp.net developer, I have used your script for popunder, I have called the pop under function in the <a> tag
( <a href="xxx.aspx" onclick="openpopunder()" >popunder</a> ) it works fine, But i have changed the

<script>
function openpopunder() {
jQuery.popunder('popunder-page.aspx');
window.location.href = "xxxxx.aspx";
}
</script>

( <a href="xxx.aspx" onclick="openpopunder()" >popunder</a> )
into
<asp:LinkButton ID="lnklogo" runat="server" OnClick="lnklogo_Click"><img src="./Images/xxxxxxx.png" alt="xxxxxxxx.com Logo" /></asp:LinkButton>

called the popup script in the code behind after saving my form values in Sessions
protected void lnklogo_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Session["formvalue"] = ObjFormvalue;
Page.ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(this.GetType(), "MyScript", "openpopunder()", true);
}
Now, This Scripts opens Pop UP Instead of Pop UNDER...

Any Idea? Please reply

Thanks,
Ragunath.s
