My corporate website requires to open a separate window for one of the applications, but when I access it from my tablet it shows a message that I have to allow popups in which I can only click OK and then reloads without letting me get to the popup blocker dialogue of Firefox mobile.

Hi tsanko.tsankov,

You should take a look at the Pop-up blocker settings, exceptions and troubleshooting Knowledge Base article. It will show you how you can set exceptions to the pop up blocker so that you can allow certain websites to use pop ups without disabling the feature completely.

Hopefully this helps!

Hi Tsanko,

It is a bit different in Firefox mobile, you should be able to tap the icon next to the URL for the site (the favicon) and get a drop-down menu. Select Clear Site Preferences. Then reload the site. If you get the blue drop-down saying Firefox prevented windows from opening, select Show to allow them and then Reload.

Let me know if you have more questions.

Thanks, Michelle
