Dual Core: PHP is serverside and cannot alter a client's browser's behaviour. You should spend more time developing a serverside method to prevent your users from cheating. Think sessions.

cbrass:

That cheating aspect is what is giving me worry that...as for sessions...hmm using it although am a bit skeptical

onye_ngbu*:

I dont know what you are trying to achieve by that but if it is something like trying to prevent multiple submit, PHP can do it comfortably for you.

By the way, what kind of game can you do with php without javascript?

yawa-ti-de:
shouldn't it be window.open()? Check your spelling, assuming that is how you have it in the code and it isn't a mere typo on this thread

cbrass:

No its a typo error here. I wrote it correctly in the script but IE9 and google chrome are blocking it even mozila is aksing questions and I need to open a page on a new window

yawa-ti-de:
Let's see how you're calling it. Post a code snippet for us

Iam_Godzilla:


Try this window.open(url,_blank)

Iam_Godzilla: Try this
$('a').on('click.open', function(e)
{ e.preventDefault(); window.open('http://
url.com') });

cbrass:

Thanks a lot, I hope it doesn't require the user clicking anything before it works? Will try it now

Iam_Godzilla:

Well just let us know if you encounter any problems

Iam_Godzilla:

Ok try any of these.
Iv tried some and it worked...

1. <p>Click the button to open a new browser window.</p>

<button onclick="myFunction()">Try it</button>

<script>
function myFunction()
{
window.open("http://www.url.com");
}
</script>

</body>
</html>

2.


<a href="javascript:window.open('http://
google.com');return false;"> open 2 </a>

3.

onclick=window.open("about:blank","newwin"

...There's something you should note.. A pop up will not show if the window.open() is triggered my a click event.

cbrass:

Yea that's the case..its not triggered by a click event, even if I use a window.open() with onclick it will not show a pop up but I have a code like this:

If($name==true)
{
Echo"<script>window.open("play.php";
}
Else
{
Echo"something";
}
in firefox it asks permission from the user to allow a pop up but IE9 it doesn't even work

Iam_Godzilla:

Ok, if this is your code or not...or things to look out for because IE9 is some tough browser
1. Make sure there are no spaces in the urls.
2. Make sure there are no trailing commas
3. You also need to close the script tag
</script>
4. Then another thing to check is the browser settings, cuz they also alter the way pop ups happen.
5. Ur Echo statement..
U can't use double columns in double columns.
Echo "<script>window.open('page.php');</script>
And if none of these works... I suggest you find another way to alter your development.
As there's always a way.

cbrass:

Most of those syntax errors u see there where just because I typed it here..I didn't make the mistakes in my script..well what I wll do is force every use that wishes to play the game to eisther use firefox or google chrome and will tell them before hand to allow pop ups before they register to play

Iam_Godzilla:

Good idea, you can just use a javascript code which would alert/redirect a user when he opens the site using IE, that their browser isn't supported.
