Google Toolbar onUnload Option

Does this stop pop ups?

[dazz]

Sorry if you have had this before...i saw this in the experimental option on the toolbar, if you have this selected will this stop pop ups? Anyone tried it and does it work?

From google toolbar options -

Browser control
The onUnload JavaScript event is most often used to open pop-up windows as you leave a page, which can be an annoyance. The following feature will clear the onUnload event after loading each page.

Suppress the onUnload JavaScript event

Thanks

dazz it only stops the onunload which are the ones the pop up when you leave (normally warez and p0rn right?) not the onload ones (the normal popups)

It will stop any pop-ups which are fired as you leave the page ( hence "onUnload()" ), however only the really irritating/questionable sites seem to use these.

Most "reputatable" sites will either use onLoad() or inline script to fire their popups, so the majority of the time you will still see popups.
