    pop ups

    Is there a code that someone would be willing to send me or that someone
    knows of that would prevent outside, unwanted popup windows from coming up
    that are attached in someway to your site? I have a family tree website
    that I have created for my family that is online and somehow when the family
    visits the site a software company for building famly trees pops up also -
    is there a javascript code I could add to my site to prevent that?

    Thank you

    When you signed up for your free site, you agreed to a Terms Of Service
    that will include that popup advertising window as part of the
    conditions, and to defeat it would be violating that TOS agreement. But
    to answer your question, you have three choices:

    1) Get a different server.
    2) Deal with the popups.
    3) Run a popup blocker or use a browser with a popup blocker built-in.

      This domain is not a "free site" it is a registred domain through Ipowerweb.
      I just have a unwanted popup site that comes up when the site is visited.
      Is there a way to block that other site from coming up, that you know of, by
      possibly adding a javascript code to the html of my site or something?

        Can you post a URL to the site? Somewhere, something is adding the popup
        code. And typically, the code is added pre-page by a server or a proxy,
        so anything you do will happen *after* the popup-code is run, thereby
        making your solution a broken one.
