1. Re: Adding popup message
garywpaul Jan 2, 2011 11:57 AM (in response to LuisDesigns)Why not instead of a "we are not finnished but here it is anyway" type (annoying) pop up, but some banner or other message to say "New exicitng additions coming soon....check back soon."

2. Re: Adding popup message
Nancy OShea Jan 2, 2011 12:02 PM (in response to LuisDesigns)Browser Pop-Up Blockers will defeat a conventional pop-up window from opening on page load. If you're under a deadline, simply put your message on the top of your home page where it will be seen.

3. Re: Adding popup message
LuisDesigns Jan 2, 2011 12:20 PM (in response to Nancy OShea)Well the message text is the least i am worried about right now, i will fit into my needs. I really prefer to add a popup message instead of having it typed in my home page because of two things, there isn´t space enough for it and if i wanted to do that i had to change alot of the design. Isn´t there a easy why for this to add the popup ?
PS - The site is finished completly, just working on some language ( french ) editing and adding more stuff such as events.
Thank you once again

6. Re: Adding popup message
Nancy OShea Jan 2, 2011 1:09 PM (in response to LuisDesigns)1) Download the Sexy Alert Box scripts and CSS from Google and save them to the Scripts folder in your local site.
2) Insert code between the <head> and </head> tags like so. Change YOUR WELCOME MESSAGE as desired.
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.4/jquery.min.js" /> </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="Scripts/jquery.easing.1.3.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="Scripts/sexyalertbox.v1.2.jquery.mini.js"></script> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="all" href="Scripts/sexyalertbox.css"/> <!--begin event cookie --> <script type="text/javascript"> function addListener(obj, evt, handler) { if (obj.addEventListener) { obj.addEventListener(evt, handler, false); } else if (obj.attachEvent) { obj.attachEvent('on' + evt, handler); } } addListener(window, 'load', function() { if (!/info/.test(window.name)) { Sexy.info('<h1>YOUR WELCOME MESSAGE GOES HERE!<\/h1><p>The rest of your message goes here.<\/p>'); window.name = 'info'; } } ); </script>

12. Re: Adding popup message
Nancy OShea Jan 2, 2011 2:06 PM (in response to LuisDesigns)ok, before i pay to download this,
You don't need to pay for this download. jQuery is open source.

will the code you gave me make it popup as soon as someone login, at the homepage ?
Yes.
i don´t want it to popup all the time but one, everytime they login.
I added a cookie. They'll only see it one time per browser session.
