RFE: Popup blocker enhancemant
Long description:
This code, found in an online game I'm playing, bypasses the current Mozilla
banner blocker. It consistently opens a 'pop-under' banner from popupad.net,
even though I have the option 'Open unrequested windows' turned off.
Relevant part from my prefs.js:
user_pref("capability.policy.default.Window.open", "noAccess");
...
user_pref("dom.disable_open_click_delay", 2500); (added by myself, but doesn't help)
user_pref("dom.disable_open_during_load", true);
Wanted behaviour: Popup should not 'pop up'.
Actual behaviour: Popup *does* pop up.
Tested on: Mozilla RC2 on MS Windows (686) and Linux 2.4.x (686).
I realize I can hardly call this a bug - but if anyone could find a smart way to
get around this, it would be appreciated a lot!
Suggestion: Maybe it could work like this - If the 'Do not open unrequested
windows' function is enabled, Javascript should not be able to submit forms that
have a not-yet-existing target (i.e. one that will open in a new window).
This is the offending code (stripped to the minimal form that still works, and
with a changed action - it actually opens the Mozilla homepage in a new window
now, instead of an irritating flashy banner page):
Btw. you will find the same code at the URL mentioned.
<HTML>

<BODY>
<form name="flauncher" action="http://www.mozilla.org"
target="nonexistingtarget" method="get"></form>
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--//
document.flauncher.submit();
// -->
</script>
</BODY>
</HTML>
