Have your own Pop-Up window, means make your own Pop-Up window using Server Side Lang or using JavaScript.
Look at dis example!

function show_success_message()
{
var success_win = window.open('','my_win_'+Math.round(Math.random()*1000),'width=x,height=y,or_may_be_your_choice');
success_win.write('here will be your HTML code');
}
 

Have a try and Good Luck.
Kind regards,

If you want to avoid popup windows, you can create your own DHTML pseudo-popups using a div and set the visibility to "visible" when you want it to appear.

Thanks guys. I think i would prefer the pseudo popup using div so i can customise it.

Personally I prefer div layer popups over regular popup windows. Depending on the scenario of course, but generally. Much less annoying to the user and a heck of a lot easier to customize. Not to mention you completely avoid the pop up blocker issue!

I agree with you there. Websites that use popups without me clicking a link are so annoying especially those that use popups onload and onunload.
