Unsure how I would do this?

Hello, I’ve been learning JavaScript recently and I’ve been wanting to make a script for a forum that produces a popup in the bottom right of my screen with a sound even if I’m browsing in a different tab when a new thread is posted in a specific section. I have no idea how I would even go about this.

I don't believe you will be able to accomplish it using JS.

Success!
