(SeaMonkey :: UI Design, defect)

Description

[Igor Velkov]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9b3pre) Gecko/2007122203 SeaMonkey/2.0a1pre
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9b3pre) Gecko/2007122203 SeaMonkey/2.0a1pre

Now popup blocker does not have option to show popup one time.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. go to page rarely use popup
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
popup blocker show "popup is blocked" message.
Now I can choose:
1. do nothing
2. add this site to "popups allowed" list
3. open popup manager

I can not see already bocked popup. Maybe, this popup contain my order number, or payment form?

Expected Results:  
There have to be an option to allow one popup, already blocked. Or, at least, option to allow popups for this site temporary - until browser close, or time limit (5, or 15 minutes, for example) reached.


I have blocked popups as default action. But time-to-time I place orders in e-shops. Rarely there is pop-ups. I need to add site to permanent allowed list this site only for read help one time, or enter my personal data. Or, maybe, there is another not needed ad window - and then I have to go to pop-up manager, search site in allowed list, and remove site.

You can right-click on the exclamation mark in the status bar to get a list of the blocked pop-ups and click on one to open that pop-up.

ok, simply test:
open url http://www.nag.ru/
scroll to youtube embedded object
click on center to playing start
click on playing video to open youtbe in new window
I see exclamationn mark on status bar and exclamation with button on top of window. Now I can press left mouse button on exclamation in status bar, or button on the top bar - and see there "show http://www.nag.ru/". Then, when I choose this item, I will got new window with http://www.nag.ru/. 
Expected result is opening window with url "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Mry95DC1yQ&eurl=http://www.nag.ru/".
Is it bug, or my misunderstanding?

Reproducible with SeaMonkey 2.0a1pre /2008020302 and SeaMonkey 1.1.7 (using the YouTube video from http://www.nag.ru/2007/1223/1223.shtml). Mozilla 1.7.13 does not block the YouTube pop up.

See also Firefox bug 396332.

This bug might be related to Core bug 414460, the URL of that bug also shows this problem.

Attachment: after blocjing non-flash popup

There is blocker menu when popup on seagate site was blocked after subscription to notification about firmware updates.
I see no possibility to see this popup - only enable popups for the future, or block forewer.
But I want to see this popup, because it is not a porn-spam-crack-smth. site.
