Test Popups
Action:
Verify:
- We do allow wanted popups (user clicks on link) and display it in the same window. You can go back to the old page using the back button.
Action:
Verify:
- Unwanted popups are blocked by design. (e.g. a popup that is opened when you load a page for example)
Unfortunately, blocking all of these latter popups, also blocks security warnings, requests to accept security certificates, etc. In my case, I can't get onto my University wireless network because Browse will not display the pop-up asking me to accept the certificate to go to the page where I enter my login details to get onto the wireless network. I get around this by connecting through Opera.
