Bloggery Mystery

January 18, 2004 6:19 AM

This is an embarassingly simple question, but after plowing through the Internet Explorer prefs, I can't find the answer.

When using blogger, a small window is left on your screen with a "close" button. When you click on it, a warning pops up: "this web page is trying to close your window and do strange things to your cat." and then you have to click a confirmation button.

Yeah, yeah, I know I can close the window three other ways, but for weak, idiosyncratic reasons would like to just click on that "close" button.

(why do I feel like"Monk" here...)

Add blogger.com as a trusted site. That should do the trick.

I found out how to fix the problem on the javascript side, but I sorta doubt that blogger is going to change their code based on user feedback.
