Assistance on allowing Pop-ups from Danae

A Pop-Up is a window that opens automatically when you click on a link or visit/leave a webpage. A pop-up blocker is a feature of a web browser (or one of its plugins) that blocks unwanted pop-up windows.

Newer browsers, such as Firefox, IE 6 and Opera 8, do not allow pop-up windows to appear by default. This can cause problems in some Danae applications, such as Danae payments, as they rely on pop-up windows to function properly.

The following is a guide on how to detect if your browser is blocking pop-ups and change the browser settings to always allow pop-up windows from Danae website.

Note:When you finish any of the procedures below, you must run through the checkout process again. All the data you entered will be held so you do no have to re-enter it. In order to check out, click on the "My Basket" link at the top right of the page.

Detect if Internet Explorer is blocking a pop-up window

A pop-up window may be blocked by Internet Explorer or one of its plugins, such as Google toolbar,

If you see this icon underneath the address bar or this icon on the status bar (at the bottom of the browser window), Internet Explorer has blocked a pop-up window. Follow the instructions below to unblock it.

If you see this icon on the toolbar below the address bar, one of Internet Explorers plugins (such as Google or Yahoo toolbar) have blocked a pop-up window. Follow the instructions below to unblock it.

 

Unblock a pop-up window that has been blocked by Internet Explorer

To unblock a pop-up window that Internet Explorer has blocked follow these steps:

1. Click on the popup blocker icon on the status bar (at the bottom of the browser window), to display the blocker menu
2. From the menu select the "Always allow Pop-ups from This Site ..." option
3. Click on the Yes button to confirm
4. Reload the webpage.

This will make Internet Explorer save the Danae web site in it's list of Allowed Sites so that in the future all pop-ups from Danae webpages will be displayed. If the pop-up window is still being blocked then check that it's not being blocked by one of Internet Explorer's plugins.

Setting preferences in Internet Explorer to allow pop-ups from Danae website

Another option is to change the default settings in Internet Explorer to allow popups from Danae website, to use that method follow the steps below:

1. From the Tools menu select Pop-up Blocker >> Pop-up Blocker Settings...
   
2. In the field titled Address of the website to allow type www.Danae.edu.au and click the Add button. The Danae website should now appear in the list of allowed sites as shown in the images below.
3. Click on the Close button to save and exit

The Danae website will now be saved to your list of Internet Explorer Allowed Sites for pop-up windows. Unfortunately, setting the Internet Explorer preferences to allow pop-ups from a site will not guarantee they will always be displayed. If you have an Internet Explorer plugin installed which is blocking pop-ups, it will need to be configured separately as shown above.
