Exit Pop Not Loading External Content in IE

[DomboCom]

I have a "Click the Cancel Button" type exit pop. When the exit pop loads, the page redirects to an external site, which works fine in FF. In IE I just get a blank page until the Cancel button is clicked. Then it loads.

If I use an internal link to a page on the same domain, it loads fine. The external stuff is the problem.

Is there a fix for this? I tried using an iframe, but that didn't work either.

Thanks!

try making the call to load the external site before your alert box

+rep Thanks Barman!

The only prob now is that ideally I'd like the exit page to rotate a couple offers. It works now if I just enter the URL without a rotator. As soon as I make it redirect to a rotate.php it waits for the cancel button to be clicked before loading (message in the status bar, "Waiting for http...")

Probably not much can be done about that, huh?

are you redirecting to the offer with header() or with a javascript window.open?

The exit pop is a javascript code, and the redirect is just a basic php header redirect.
