hi, can you help me in how to do the second step (what script code to write) for that step: "then try adding your site to pop up blocker exception list. " Thanks

Hi, You can try this 1. Detect if browser is blocking the popup on page load 2. then try adding your site to pop up blocker exception list. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2914/how-can-i-detect-if-a-browser-is-blocking-a-popup https://stackoverflow.com/questions/668286/detect-blocked-popup-in-chrome/1089792#1089792 I can't say for sure if this method will work or not as i have never faced this situation personally. But you can always try it.

what i want is allow popups in chrome automatically when users open my website, by adding my site to the exception list of user chrome, because chrome blocks popup from my script code. can i do what i want? thanks
