Bug 29346 prevents popup windows, but someone mentioned something about being
asked to confirm about popup windows. This might be distracting, but I thought
of a solution that might be more attractive. How about having a sidebar slide
that listed all the popup window requests that were denied?
You could delete them from the list and also set them to expire after a certain
amount of days. It would show the URL of the popup (or maybe the title of the
page - which could probably be grabbed without much work), and if you moved your
mouse over it, you would see a tooltip showing more information. You could also
choose properties to see all the info like time, date, referer, etc.
When you wanted to view it, you would just double-click on it and whammo - you
could see the popup.

Sounds like an interesting idea for a downloadable extension. RFE to add a
sidebar *tab*, not an RFE for the sidebar itself; therefore, over to XPApps.

As requested Moving Popup Manager In The Sidebar Idea (Concept) to this bug
(Enhancement) from bug 103406.
Popup Manager In The Sidebar Idea Key
I tried to use items that are already in the browser to represent the Popup
Manager.
The Folders represent open windows, that YOU have open manually.
The Green lights say it is OK to open the window automatically.
The Red Flags say NEVER open the Popup automatically.
If the fields are blank, user intervention is required, but by default the
popup
will remain closed.
If the person likes they can manually open a popup by clicking on it in the
Popup Manager Site area. If the pop is open this will bring that window to the
foreground.
You can kill all open popup by selecting the desired windows in the list and
pressing the delete key.
Underneath the list is additional information about the site.
Additional information will give stats on the popup, size of window, location
of
window, etc... just fun stuff.
Open will open the window, and Don't open will not open the window.
The check box
I have also included the option to block ALL popup coming from a selected site.
The current "UI prefs to control pop-up (popup) windows and other JavaScript
annoyances" (Bug 75371) is more of a blanket coverage. This would allow users
to create a list to automate which sites you would like to either allow pop-up
in or deny them in.
If you have any other questions feel free to ask.

See also, bug 148689. This bug could be done in conjunction with that one. When
you get an icon in the status bar, it could pop open the denied popups sidebar.

As an additional suggestion, it would be nice to see this as a non sidebar item
as an option. And I agree with the status bar idea, having an icon to represent
when a popup was killed would be very handy combined with this manager.

MASS-CHANGE:
This bug report is registered in the SeaMonkey product, but has been without a comment since the inception of the SeaMonkey project. This means that it was logged against the old Mozilla suite and we cannot determine that it's still valid for the current SeaMonkey suite. Because of this, we are setting it to an UNCONFIRMED state.
If you can confirm that this report still applies to current SeaMonkey 2.x nightly builds, please set it back to the NEW state along with a comment on how you reproduced it on what Build ID, or if it's an enhancement request, why it's still worth implementing and in what way.
If you can confirm that the report doesn't apply to current SeaMonkey 2.x nightly builds, please set it to the appropriate RESOLVED state (WORKSFORME, INVALID, WONTFIX, or similar).
If no action happens within the next few months, we move this bug report to an EXPIRED state.
