[jaws-uk] Re: Pop-up blocker

MessageHi Mark 

Yes, I've been here already, but my problem is that this utility is not working 
for me.  I have pop-up blocker turned "off" , I know this because the first 
item in the pop-up menu is turn "on" pop-up blockers, which suggests to me that 
they are off.  The settings option is unavailable, again suggesting that the 
utility is turned off.  

When I hit enter on the link which takes me to the BBC media window which opens 
a new window, there is a funny "click" and the status line reads that pop-ups 
have been blocked from this page.  As I said, the only way I can overcome this 
is to route Jaws to PC and left click while holding down the control key.  It's 
not the end of the world, but I would like to understand why this is happening.

Kind regards ... Scott

  Hi Scott,

  To manage pop-ups, access the Utilities settings dialog, by hitting ALT T, 
followed by P. I think you'll find its all pretty much self-explanatory in 
there.

  Its worth noting however, any changes made in here usually requires a Browser 
re-start to take effect. HTH.


  Cheers,

  Mark

  Hi there 

  Having just upgraded my PC to XP SP2, I have for the first time come across 
the IE built-in pop-up blocker.  

  There are certain sites where I want the pop-ups to occur such as the BBC 
listen again page, but when I turn it off in the tools pop-up blocker menu, it 
still does not allow the new browser window and confirms this in the status 
line.  

  The only way I can get it to open the new window is by routing Jaws to PC and 
clicking the left mouse button while holding down the control key.  I have 
looked at the settings in the pop-up blocker sub-menu, but there is nothing 
obvious there.  

  Has anyone else had any problems and if so how have they overcome this, if 
indeed they have?  As always, thanks for any help.

  Kind regards ... Scott
