====== Pop-Ups & Redirects ======

<WRAP center round important 80%>
This article is about allowing a new window/tab to open a different website then the one you are currently on.  If you are looking for the "pop-up ads" that show up, please see [[kb:chrome:pushnotifcations|]]
</WRAP>

Some websites need to open a new tab/new window to display content from a different website.  By default Chrome will block this behavior unless you specifically allow it to happen.


<wrap tip>The best way to make sure your browser works with all PA Virtual sites and resources is to make sure you are logged in.  See [[kb:chrome:signin|]] page for directions. </wrap>

For sites that you wish to allow to pop-up windows, but are not defined via our system wide policies, you can follow standard Chrome directions to allow pop-ups from specific sites:

  - Open Chrome, and paste the following into the address bar.  ''%%chrome://settings/content/popups%%''
    - Another way to get to the same page, you can click on {{:kb:chrome:chromeui-menu.png?nolink|menu button}}, choose "Settings", and then "Privacy and Security" → "Site Settings" → "Pop-ups and redirects".  
  - Now click on ADD in the "Allowed to send pop-ups and use redirects" section to allow a specific site.
  - This will bring up a small window where you can define the specific website you wish to allow.
