Hey guys,
Not being a JS man I'm not sure if this is possible or not, but can JavaScript automatically click a link after a specified amount of time has passed?
Say like, after 10 seconds it clicks the link which already has a JS function assigned to it which opens a pop-up ... or would it be easier to just run the script after 10 seconds?
Cheers
Full Version: Automatically Click A Link
Actually, it seems it isn't possible. Using the setTimeout function it just blocked the pop-up automatically.

:(:(:( For some reason, ###### has replaced on+Load. Other than that, it works.

Try using the click event handler...
EDIT: Oh, I now see that is what WolfShade's script is using...
