(To see and test what this is all about, you should download Safari if you haven't already done so. After that, use the code below with popup blocker enabled AND with popup blocker disabled, using Safari). When a new window or tab is not explicitly requested by the visitor of a site i.e. when the window's appearance is attached to such events as onload or onunload, popup blockers (if enabled) will prevent a file from being opened. But when the window's appearance is attached to an ...

<?php ?>
echo
<html> <head> <title>My First PHP Page</title> </head> <body> <?php echo "Hello World!"; ?> </body> </html>
