I need help with some HTML code
 
Yep i've tried searching place for the right html code that i need. The code is for the onload command (it may be javascript, not html, i dont know).

What i want to happen is a new window pop-up automactically when a page loads.

Any help is appreciated

That is indeed Javascript.

I recommend going here: http://www.javafile.com/main.php?page=%2F

There's a basic popup tutorial there, plus code for other cool things you can do with popups.
Bear in mind that a lot of people close popups as soon as they see them without bothering to read what's inside.

*Is one of those people*

The advent of popup advertising has caused me and many other people to simply ignore a popup and close it before it even loads.

The only good use for popups is when you are using them for an image link and to display an image for example, like Oddworld.com does, and like I do too.

thanks, i needed it alot.

yes i also delete every pop up window i get, my geocities website has pop up ads on everypage, but i've deleted all of them so many times that they dont appear any more for me....

and yeah my pop up windows are for displaying new links, and stuff like that, i would never put up ads, i hate them...
