Question

I have this at above the body tag in my page —

<script type="text/javascript">
    $(document).ready(function() {
        $('#button').popupWindow({windowURL:'http://something',centerBrowser:1,width:400,height:300}); 
    });
</script>   

Is there a way to make this popup happen without the user actually clicking a button — programmatically w/ code inserted into the middle of the page with php on page load?

Answer 1

Add the following next.

$("#button").trigger("click");

Or put it all on on chained line:

$('#button').popupWindow({...options...}).trigger("click");

For what it’s worth, you can invoke this from a non-rendered element:

$("<div></div>").popupWindow({..options..}).click();
