Is the pop up blocker in your browser enabled? For the record, I don't see any from this site or any notices that one is blocked.

Thumbs down Re: Get Rid of that Pop-up!!!

I had that problem when using Google's Chrome browser today. I thought the program had become corrupted after viewing a link posted on Priuschat so I uninstalled the browser. Right now I'm using Firefox 3 with a script blocker and am having no problems with that error message showing up.

Default Re: Get Rid of that Pop-up!!!

A quick google indicates that there is a bug in safari 3, and I guess chrome, which doesn't implement the beforeunload method correctly. This method is meant to prevent premature or accidental loss of form data before you hit the submit button. The clue is the dialog box has "false" in place of a helpful text string. So I suspect Danny has improved his code by incorporating the beforeunload method or maybe not. I could be wrong. It's been known to happen. Perhaps someone could patch around that feature for non-compliant browsers?

Default Re: Get Rid of that Pop-up!!!

I just started getting the pop-up tonight. It comes up when I click on certain links and when I try to close a priuschat page that is on a tab. I've tried Safari 3 and Safari 4 beta on Mac OS X with Block Pop-Up Windows enabled.

P.S., the pop-up also came up when I clicked on "Preview Post".

I've got it too, on Refresh, Reply, close a tab, close a window, View New
Posts, Submit Reply, etc. All with the imbedded, "false." Very irritating.

I'm running Safari 3.2.1

I have no pop-ups from PriusChat using Firefox, not even a warning banner on top. Normally when a window wants to pop up, Firefox will give me a barely noticeable warning.

Danny - Please, please fix this ASAP, for all us Safari users. I'm running Safari 4 beta. This just started happening yesterday. Does not happen with Firefox. While you're at it, maybe you could fix the Firefox problem of not updating (debolding) after viewing a thread and returning to the new posts list. Thanks.
