Mazda pop up

[Hughesie2]

Ted,

the mazda pop up keeps causing my page to repeat refresh, and i'm struggling to get in to PH, on IE6 only, mozilla seems ok

THIS IS ONE REVOLUTION (i can do without!)

Ted - this bloody ad is popping up on every page i open - including starting a thread or opening a new one already started.

I am not against your ad policy, except for ones like this that keep appearing and ruing my site enjoyment...

I sit something to do with cookie acceptance, because i can't fiddle with computer settings to accept - its not my machine...

Cheers....

If you've got third party cookies disabled then you'll see it multiple times.

I'll see if I can implement something locally on this server to help you.

much better thanks!

What are these "popup" things which you speak of?

Ah, it must be the poor saps who are still running Micro$oft Internet Exploder.

Use Firefox, you dullards!

Actually Jon, I think this kind do work in Firefox as they're overlays not popups. Pretty sure I've seen one anyway.

[JonRB]

Funny you should say that, Ted, but I was just about to post to this thread this morning to say "bugger, you've made it work with Firefix now" and then saw your post.

Just as an aside, this is what I get in Firefox 1.0 on my laptop:



(i.e. it sits at the bottom of the window)

On my home PC in Firefox 1.0, it floats over the rest of the screen.

I am not(major understatement) a fan of pop-ups, pop-unders, overlays, etc, whatever you call them. They are "unwanted"!

In regards to the Macromedia Flash overlay (i.e. the Mazda ad), if you right-click on the ad you should be able to access the Flash settings and block the site delivering the ad. Alternatively, you can visit the Macromedia web site and in the support section there are some pages to configure the Flash player to filter unwanted sites.

Happy serfing!

Fair enough. Got to pay the bills though.
