Java Popup works everywhere but Compuserve. Why?

[HTMLcrazy]

I'm building a website for a friend of mine who has a boat business. I have a popup for each boat with an overhead view and specs. It works in IE and NS fine, even old versions. My friend has Compuserve and he says the popup shows up way too small and with nothing in it until you either resize or maximize, then the content shows up.


Here's what I have.....

<script>

function doPopUp(){
doPopUpWindow = window.open("trackerspecs/avalanche.html","samewindow","menubar=yes,status=yes,scrollbars=yes,left=250,top=150,screenX=250,screenY=150,width=500,height=300");
}

</script>


And to call for the script......

<a href="javascript:doPopUp()"><img src="trbassboats/avalanche-th.gif" width="120" height="80" alt="Avalanche" border="0"></a>

I have about 75 or so boats to change so I hope this is just a matter of 1 little character I forgot.

Thanks:confused:

This guy has an old computer using an old version of CS. His computer seems to be the only one this is happening to.

Is Compuserve the one that comes with "Pop-up killer"???
In any case you are facing potential problem as more and more users install pop-up blocing software or use Gecko built in feature to disallow popups.

My popups are for information on boats, so the user can view additional specifications. They don't come up unless the user wants them to. Do popup killers even kill those?

Sometimes - netscape 7 beta did, and so does opera

i think that's most likely the problem right there. it's working everywhere else; that's something to be happy with, i'd say.

Thanks everyone for your help, I probably should just leave well enough alone. If there are only one or two old browsers that this won't work in, that's gotta be pretty good.

Thanks again
