I use a simple code to make pictures shown enlarged in separate window when
cliked. However, two or three people told me that they cannot see the
enlarged images (actually they cannot even click on the small images). See
www.xanthopoulou.com.

Thanks in advance

Sound like those users have a popup stopper application installed. They
should be able to configure the application to allow them to see popup.

Hi Coconis,
some (if not all - didnt check them all) of your popup links dont have
closing </a> tags, eg
<a href="#"
onClick="window.open('images/DSCN0911-500.jpg','mywindow','width=530,height=
530')">
<img border="0" src="images/DSCN0911-150.jpg" width="150" height="150"></td>

IE isn't too fussy about this but other browsers won't stand for it - result
some people will be able to see your popups some wont. You'll need to go
through and correct the links, also when you have javascript called onclick
you should add return false, so you'd want to end up with
<a href="#"
onClick="window.open('images/DSCN0911-500.jpg','mywindow','width=530,height=
530'); return false;">
<img border="0" src="images/DSCN0911-150.jpg" width="150"
height="150"></a></td>

They're probably using a firewall like Zone Alarm which
can be set to block pop-up windows.
 
Thanks to all for your response. I think Jon really found the weak point in
my html code.

Thanks again

I have an existing application running with users from win98 to XP... A user came home with a brand new PC with XP on it and it won't allow a pop up. There is no 3rd party software that we've found - yet and have added the secure site to the trusted sites list. But still no pop up windows from my app or yahoo mail services... What else is there?
 
....very hard to say. Could you post a URL to the page in question?
Is it a Java Pop-Up? If so, does that "user" have a JVM installed?

Also could be their ISP providing popup blocking or their anti-virus

Google toolbar? XP Service Pack2 Release Candidate 1?

Both of which block pop-ups by default, with Service Pack 2 due to he
released later this summer you may want to rethink using pop-ups.
