Hi
My site works as a pop-up.
I need to know if there is any code that can detect if the user has a pop-up ad blocker installed, and if so redirect them to a version of my site that isn't a pop-up.
This code only needs to work in IE
Thanks!

It would be impossible for a script to detect whether a person has a ceertain application running.
You would have to check for the google toolbar on IE, which i don't even think is possible.
any mozilla users have popup blockers enabled by default.
It would be pointless to try./

you cant detect if they have an application installed, but you can check if the window pops up :)
you just have to do something like this
function openWin() {
var win = window.open(...);
if (!win) {
window.location = "http://whatever";
}
}
i only tested it in moz and ie, and it works in both

Hey, I was wondering about that n8thegreat just didnt think it was possible to detect if the window is open or not.
