thanks for ur help..

another question is,,

5000 = 5 seconds
then how about 15 sec ??

do u guys mind to let me know how to adjust the time ??


15 sec is it = 15000 ??

You're welcome. Yes; it would be 15000 since the delay is represented in milliseconds.

why it is not working.. do u guys mind to check my code for a while ,, thanks..

my code:
if (readCookie("visited")) {
// user has been here before
}
else
{
setTimeout
(
function()
{
window.open('popup.htm', '', 'width=430,height=580,resizable=yes');
},
15000
);

}

Works fine for me. Maybe the function that checks to see if the cookie is set is faulty?

[Alicia]

it is working now.. thanks

Maybe you were looking at the cached version of the page? Who knows. Anyway, you're welcome. ;)
