Hi,
The following article does not work for me:
https://www.essentialobjects.com/forum/postst9846_EOWebBrowser-block-all-popups-prevent-redirect-to-another-page.aspx

I want to block a JS popup from my WebView control.
Currently, the code does not seem to hit newwindow event.

Please advise
Tej

Hi,

NewWindow event is associated to window.open or target attribute of a link element. If NewWindow event is not hit, then ithe "popup" is not truely a popup. It could be a dynamically created DHTML element (such as a DIV element) inside the page. Technically there is no different between this and other dynamic loading scenario such as dynamically load a picture. There is no way for you to block such "popup" beside analyzing and modifying the JavaScript code in the page.

Thanks
