MS Outlook 2003 and pop ups in HTML problem

[Guest]

Hello

We have been sending our corporate newsletter as a HTML attachment. The page
includes javascript code that opens some popups when you click in some links.
These popups seem to be blocked though. I can see them for less than a second
as if they open and then disappear. I am wondering if I can actually enable
these popups to show through MS Outlook 2003 (SP2).

Thanks in advance

Have you tried opening the message and then selecting View > View in
Internet Zone before trying the links?

Hello

Yes, I tried that. The same thing happens. WHen I switched it warned me
about scripts and safety, I chose to open and same thing happened.

If it's an attachment, then it's opening in the user's default browser and is subject to the browser's security settings. I would keep the page as plain vanilla as possible.
