Best popunder code?

[scouser]

Any popunder libraries you guys know of that work?

Trying to find one that will actually do a popunder in chrome. I know its possible, kayak does it. Can't be bothered to go through their code to see how they do it in chrome...

Colmike7 usually has something up his sleeve. I know there was one which was posted here in the last three months and supposedly it was working for some people. It sucks that the browser coders keep making it harder to do a popUNDER versus a popOVER. Popunders are much less annoying and disruptive provided they have no audio or other consoles.

scroll down at the link. You probably missed it.

Usage

Popunders are popup windows that open behind the currently active browser window. The latest version of this script opens popunders on document.onclick.
Options

"sUrl": The url to open
"sConfig": paramaters object (optional)

Available Parameters

"name": The name of the popunder window (defaults to a random number)
"width": The width of the popunder (defaults to opener's width)
"height": The height of the popunder (defaults to opener's height)
"top": Popunder position from top (defaults to 0)
"left": Popunder position from left (defaults to 0)
"wait": Interval/wait time between popunders (in seconds, defaults to 3600 = 1 hour)
"cap": Max daily popunders per domain (capping, defaults to 2)
"cookie": Cookie name to be used (defaults to "__.popunder")

Compatibility

Google Chrome 10-27
Mozilla Firefox 3-21
Microsoft Internet Explorer 6-10
Apple Safari 6

Known Issues

Safari also opens an empty tab

Examples

This example opens google.com in full screen using default settings:

jsPopunder('http://www.google.com');

This example opens google.com in a 500x500 window

jsPopunder('http://www.google.com', {
name: 'googleWindow',
width: 500,
height: 500
});

Full example:

jsPopunder('http://www.google.com', {
name: 'googleWindow',
width: 1025,
height: 640,
top: 0,
left: 0,
wait: 1800,
cap: 10,
cookie: 'googPop'
});

So put the code somewhere like in your header and then call jsPopunder('http://www.google.com'); to go to www.google.com for the popunder.

It looks like it pops over with Firefox 21.0 on Linux. It seemed to pop under correctly on chromium 26.0. Still it's fairly nice so thanks.

@Stephen, Fuck 'em.

it's popunder.js that is the full code though, no?

I missed this one, this is the code:
