According to the program policies, no. Plus it sounds like you're going to be generating a popup from third-party sites, which IMO would also be a problem.

Which part? I've read the TOS a couple of times. | Plus it sounds like you're going to be generating a popup from third-party sites, which IMO would also be a problem. |

Hmm...understood...but if the click is to a "page" on my site (an HTML/browser-based audio player), then, technically, the ads are on my site via a click from another site (just like any of the ads on my actual "pages").

The Program Policies is a different document than the TOS (link is on the AdSense login page): | No AdWords ads or Google search box may be displayed on any domain parking websites, pop-ups, pop-unders, error, registration, or "thank you" pages, or in any email. |

Right, but, it's only a popup insofar as it's not a full-sized window. That is, it's a media player window, not an ad, and one that comes up through direct user interaction, not just by visiting the page. I guess this is a special case I'll have to ask the Adsense team about directly. Thanks!

Let us know what they say. I've used popups for displaying extra info (user clicks on a link), so it would be nice to be able to add an ad or two to the popup if appropriate.

I have seen the website of a Canadian financial TV channel show Adsense ads in the pop-up window for its video on demand (you select the show segment, it spawns a new window with embedded Windows media player and adsense ads). I don't know though if they have a special agreement with Google.

My understanding of the pop-up issue is that if it's initiated by a user click it should be OK. After-all, what is really the difference between something like <a target=_blank> and <a onclick=popup()>?

Would there be enough text content in the media windows to target ads?

Probably not. I figured the ads would be the default ones for the site (the topic is pretty focused).

Keep in mind that when a user clicks an ad, the advertiser's site will load in that same window.

Thats a very good point jomaxx, I hadn't thought of that, as we are not allowed to alter to adsense code to fix this. Hey ho.
