Hello,
I’d like to be able to open a video automatically when a specific page in my site is visited(http://www.thebellaboo.com/). I’d like to use a Scripty Lightbox effect to open the video. Is this possible?
OK, I think I found it - Spawn New Window. Only question I have now, does this have the potential of being blocked by Popup Blockers? If so, is there a better way to do this?
Any time you open up a new window, you fall into the purview of the popup blockers. But effects like ScriptyLightbox (or Spawn New Window in its iOS compatibility mode) don’t actually open a new window – they just dynamically add a new box to the same page in the same window, and then fill that with content. So if you find an effect that does not actually open a separate browser window, rest assured that it will work with or without popup blockers. If someone really doesn’t want to see it, they will have to go as far as to entirely disable JavaScript.
