154476 - Popup window not blocked!

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 126224

(Core :: DOM: Core & HTML, defect)

Description

[Josh Huber]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 Galeon/1.2.5 (X11; Linux ppc; U;) Gecko/20020610
Debian/1.2.5-1
BuildID:    1.0.0

After looking at the source (look at the bottom of the source for the NYT main
page), it seems as though they use onLoad="..." from inside an <img ...> tag
pointing to an empty image.  For some reason this appears to bypass the popup
window blocking feature.  I've tested this with 1.0.0 and Galeon using the gecko
engine.  Both browsers show a popup window.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Just point your browser at http://www.newyorktimes.com/


Actual Results:  The popup ad appeared.

Expected Results:  Heh, for the popup ad to NOT appear.
