Hi,

One of my client has asked us to a popup when their clients open the email newletter.

Is that possible to do in php.

Basically pop up window will have their signature.

They are asking for an php template to be used for email newsletters.And pop up window will open with their signature.

Is that possible?. I am not an programmer. Can anyone help me.

Thanks
Suvetha

Hi Nandugan,

No, that cannot be done. Popups require JavaScript support and decent email clients do not execute JavaScript.

Welcome aboard nandugan, but be aware - ANY link when received by an email client will open a browser window, so could be perceived as a "popup . . . "

For recipients using web-based mail, assign a blank target

<a href="somelink.html" target="_blank">

would also do the same thing. So it's basically a new browser window or tab depending on the browser configuration, but pop up, no.
