That's why I asked about the trigger.
dsonesuk, what if the trigger is situational (not time sensitive)?
Let's say a bad storm is heading towards us and 50 users are deciding what to buy on various pages of a site (pages that have already loaded).
I can't imagine how to force a pop up after the page is loaded (with code that wasn't in the page when it loaded).
Is that possible? If so, how generally?
