Unfortunately, there’s no such thing as a javascript-based “pop-under” window, since all of the “pop-up” is happening in a single window, thanks to the magic of javascript. True, multi-window pop-unders have gone the way of the dodo thanks to modern browsers which block them.

It may be possible to do something that pops up on page exit, as an interstitial on outbound links, or as you scroll to the bottom of the page (I love what the NYTimes does now with its related articles).

We’d love to tackle anything a client is willing to pay us to work on. :-)

However, we'd really love to have the capability of either (or both) pop-under (appearing beneath the current window), or pop-up on exit (triggered when the reader leaves the site). These are viewed as less annoying to the visitor, and tend to have higher conversion rates. Are you aware of either of these capabilities being developed in the Plone community? Something Groundwire might take on... ?</p> Hi Jon, We’ve been using this, somewhat sparingly, on the YES! site.

Is there a way to trigger this via a clicked link instead of or in addition to the automatic timer?</p> Jon, very nice.
