    Small anoying problem

    Hiya

    This has to be qualified as belonging to the small problems department but
    never the less:

    I have a Swedish version of XP home. Updated with the last updates and the
    latest Java vm.

    When I try to book tickets on www.stenaline.se at "boka" nothing happens. If
    I close down my Norton firewall, set change the security setting in IE to
    low still nothing happens. On my office computer I have no problems getting
    the booking site up.

    Also if I use Netscape or Oprah there is no problem whatsoever.

    The page IE try to open is "javascript:par ent.openPage(17 199,1,'_blank') ;"

    If I change "blank" to "self" the booking site comes up as it should.

    Other web pages that use JavaScript are all but rarely OK.

    Stenaline claims that they could not recreate my problem.

    Any ideas?

    Tia

      PS: Testing on www.popupcheck.com with the firewall on I fail on
      User-launched JavaScript-method popup allowing - but pass with the firewall
      off.

          Yes and no. There is a popup blocker in Norton - even when I disable it
          still no change.

              You use a popup blocker.

                  To debug, try this page:

                  === test.html ===

                  <a href="http://cnn.com" target="_blank" >cnn new page</a>
                  <br><br>
                  <a href="http://cnn.com" target="_self"> cnn same page</a>

                  =============== ===

                  Does this show the offending habit?

                      Hi
                      Thanks for your help. I think I finally figured out the problem. There seems
                      to an incompatibility between the bookingprocedur e
                      at Stena line and Norton Internet Security 2004. The booking is identified
                      as a popup that should be stopped. If you close
                      the firewall - in the cache there is still a link saying
                      "javascript:par ent.openPage(17 199,1,'_blank') ;" has no information.
                      If you empty the cache first (I should have thought off that - it was late
                      though) and then close the firewall or change the setting in Norton: It
                      works as is should.

                      Cheers
