i copied a script that opens a popup once using a cookie. It works perfectly popping up the window if i run it locally by pointing my browser to the file location. After publishing to localhost or web server it does not popup the window. i do remove the cookie between tries. The various software is Window XP pro and IIS 5.1, IE 6.0.2 locally. The server is Windows 2003 with IIS 5.1. I have included the script as i changed it.
