New window opens on restricted site

[Chartway]

I have -All in my URL.TXT file, and +somesites that I want to allow. If a user clicks on a link that is a restricted site, the Access Denied message comes up, sometimes twice, and when you click ok, it opens a blank PWB window.

Is there any way to stop that blank window from coming up, my boss don't like it, hehe

Thanks

What is the URL that is causing the problem?

And what is in your URL file?

I am guessing the offending restricted site is opening a pop-up window. We can add a close secondary (pop-up) window on deny access function to PWB if this would help.

It seems to be doing it on every deny access url. Sometimes the access denied message comes up one, sometimes twice, then a blank window that the user has to close.

Thanks. I gotta demo this kiosk in the morning, and it's quite the showstopper.

Send a copy of your INI and URL file to...

Support@TeamSoftwareSolutions.com

And we will take a look at what is going on.

I am getting the same behavior.

I get the blank window regardless of what I set ShowAccessDialog in the security section to, but if i set it to true, I get 2 access denied messages.

I'll also send my pwb.ini and my url file.

PWB v2.04 revision 1 closes the about blank window when access is denied.

When a user attempts to access a website that is restricted, a new blank window is displayed directly after closing the access denied dialog.

My URL file contains the following options:

-all and +(A number of sites)

I read something about this a few weeks ago yet applying the new revision does not seem to have had any effect on this particular problem.

I did not notice this popup problem before I edited the Access.txt file from
its default message. It may have been there, I just don't remember seeing it.

Many thanks

Do you have the URL of the web site along with an excerpt from your URL file that we can test?

What happens is the web site opens an About:Blank window which is allowed, but the site PWB is redirected to is not, resulting in the About:Blank window being displayed.
