    <p><strong>Goal:</strong> To create a bookmarklet that calls a remote javascript file that opens a popup window. The popup window is functionally similar to what Delicious's bookmarklet does.</p> <p><strong>Background:</strong> Currently, I'm using window.open within this javascript file, however the popup is getting blocked by pretty much every major browser. </p> <p>The alternative solution to this is very similar to the way Delicious wrote their bookmarklet - calling window.open through a javascript query within the bookmarklet itself. However, I need the ability to modify the other contents of my javascript file in the future without requiring users to continually grab newest releases of the bookmarklet.</p> <p><strong>What I've determined to be happening:</strong> Since the window.open call is not occurring <em>directly</em> as a result of a click by the user, the browser feels this is something that should be blocked. Here's <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms537632(VS.85).aspx" rel="nofollow noreferrer">a source</a> on this.</p> <p><a href="http://www.smashingmagazine.com/2010/05/23/make-your-own-bookmarklets-with-jquery/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">This</a> is the tutorial I referenced most recently in creating the call to the remote js file.</p> <p>Here is a basic example of what my code is doing; the window.open/popup portion is the only significant part I'm including as it's the only part I feel is causing the complication:</p> <p>Example of the remote javascript file:</p> <pre><code>if (typeof jQuery == 'undefined') { var jQ = document.createElement('script'); jQ.type = 'text/javascript'; jQ.onload=runthis; jQ.src = 'http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1/jquery.min.js'; document.body.appendChild(jQ); } else { runthis(); } function runthis() { window.open('http://www.google.com/', 'a title', 'location=yes,links=no,scrollbars=no,toolbar=no,width=550,height=550'); } </code></pre> <p>I'd really appreciate any help as this has been stumping me for a while!</p>

    1. COIf you could do this, from an external included file, why couldn't every spammer and intrusive advertiser do the same? If you think about the abuses this would offer, it's pretty easy to see why it's actively blocked by every browser.

    2. COEh, this is a bookmarklet, the user has to actively click it and bookmarklets need user interaction to be created.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
