hotmail popunders - cant notice 'em !

[piniyini]

hello people,

I want to know how hotmail does those popunders, coz they are very hard to notice.

Other popunders are noticable cos they pop up (you can see the title bar) and then pop behind, these ones on hotmail just make the main window lose focus for about a second. The next thing you know you've got a popunder.

If any one has ANY (however minor it may be) info on how its done, please let me know.

Here's a guess - if you go

- open window with advert.html
- blur

Then you will see the window for the time it takes to load the document. But if you go

- open window with nothing
- blur
- load advert.html

It should blur almost immdiately

sorry, I dont understand.

Plz explain.

That is confusing...

I think www.cgi-scripts.net have a script for a pop-under, and I am almost certain that www.dynamicdrive.com has one too.

sorry, I dont understand.

brothercake means they open the window first, then blur it, then load a document into it example:

var win1=new window('blank.htm','win1','width=100 height=100');
win1.blur();
win1.location.href='http://otherdocument.com';

I think that works:D
