Need to enable some useful popups

LWC · Guest

Oh, do you mean you can at least try the popups in that login page? Smile

Well, when it comes to the articles, I looked in the source code and it turned out the comments are loaded as an IFRAME.
And it looks like Proxomitron does not allow pages, that are loaded inside IFRAMEs, to use the javascript's window.open function!
THAT is what the "freed script" error message is all about.

But, again, it does work out as soon as I add the ^ynet to the pop up disabler filter...

Is it possible that we found a bug in the "allow popups after loading" filter? I mean, that it forget to authorize pages inside IFRAMEs too.
Then again, if so than it shouldn't work when I reload too...

Oh, I did successfully added a LoadOff=window.reload() command
(Off=On. Good boy, Proxomitron...).
So guess what happened?
The page kept refreshing until infinity... Wink

I couldn't find a way to make it refresh only ONCE.

Oh sure, I can use the meta way instead, but then I'll have to:
1) Wait and wait and wait until it reloads and I can see the comments.
2) Get no advantage over the aforementioned javascript way (i.e. too frequent reloads)...

If I go to the login page, after clearing my cache, and click on the tour gif, I get nothing with IE. If I reload and click I get the tour popup.

If I set the encoding to western european, clear my cache, start IE, load the page, and click on the tour link I
get the tour popup. Unfortunately I don't think anybody can read this page in western european Wink

I added a refresh to the page but that didn't help. Sad

K-Melleon and Firebird work fine.

All this, plus that one link about can't execute code from a freed script, leads me to believe there is something screwy about the way IE handles encoding.

Which of course is no help.

You won't believe it. I was trying to download something in a totally unrelated site when all of a sudden I got the same "freed" error!

What are the odds?

BUT, this time everything is on the same page, no IFRAME, no nothing.
So here goes (I think) my IFRAME theory...

Try it out at http://www.masagames.f2s.com (abandonwares site)
But note that they didn't add a ";return false" to their download links, because they wanted them to open up two windows for every link - one as a javascript onclick (the link itself) while the other is the regular HTML link (a "we ask for donations" window).
Since the HTML one works fine, it makes it hard to test because the page dissapears before you know what's wrong with it.

And now you should ask yourself, if so then how I did know this was a "freed" error in the first place...
Well, because, fortunately, they have a subsite for emulator games, in which they ONLY use the onclick part for links, so the page remains static and you can see the error.
I'm talking about http://www.masagames.f2s.com/rom/

And guess what?
It does work when I refresh!

Man what a pain.

I only checked http://www.masagames.f2s.com/
This site won't work without the language installed.
So I reinstalled.

Most interesting, http://www.masagames.f2s.com/metalsaver.php3# .
I can't force the Metal Saver page to western europe with Hebrew installed, so I can't check like I did before. Parts of the site I can but not this page. If I change encoding with it loaded, that is probably the same as refresh but it does then work. Of course it works after a reload.

I do see two javascript errors though, one for "freed" and another for "new window document is null or not an object". I also see 404s.

Proxomitron has a filter,"Suppress all JavaScript errors", that may hide script errors.

And the page works in mozilla.

I wonder if our Japanese friends also have this problem.

I also wonder if this is something new. I'm testing with the current IE6.

I can't explain it. Perhaps somebody at the prox-list, http://groups.yahoo.com/group/prox-list/
, could.

Even Proxomitron's author himself said you don't need it to supress javascripts errors. It's a lot easier to do just click the V in IE. Besides, that way, you can still see the problems manually.

I may have found a better work around for http://www.masagames.f2s.com/metalsaver.php3#

Hi

I'm the webmaster of MASAGAMES...
I checked my referer list and found this post Smile

To be honst, I have no idea what you're talking about, but I just wanted to say that I'll be glad to help...
I can fix the encoding so you won't have to refreash it. just tell me what to do Smile

Good Luck!

p.s.
I can only access internet on fridays and Saturdays, so if I don't answer it's probably because i'm not at home...

Gordi,
Thanks so much for the offer Very Happy

, but I don't think there is anything you can do to help LWC.
LWC has a fix that he is happy with anyway.
I think this is a browser bug, http://www.computercops.biz/postt16203.html

If my/our "testing" has been abusive, I apologize for us all.
That is certainly not our intent.

Thank You

Gordi · Guest

No, It wasn't abusive at all Smile

Is there anything I can do so surfers won't have the problem LWC had?

No, I don't think there is anything you can do.

Your site is OK when viewed without Proxomitron involved. Only your visitors who use Internet Explorer and Proxomitron or something similar may have this problem and they should be able to work around it.

I don't think you need to worry. Smile

This site suffers from the same problem. Once again, having "Disable Pop ups" not affecting it solved it.

Well, turns out this is not a Hebrew problem.
check out http://www.westhost.com

As usual, having "Disable Pop ups" not affecting it solved it.
Will I have to add new sites to that filter all along...?
