How do I detect popup blocker in Chrome?

Question

I have searched many issue in stack overflow and might be duplicate here Detect Popup

But not helped for me while testing in Chrome (tested v26.0.1410.64)
Following Approach Worked in IE and Firefox but not in Chrome

var popup = window.open(winPath,winName,winFeature,true);
 if (!popup || popup.closed || typeof popup.closed=='undefined'){
       //Worked For IE and Firefox
        alert("Popup Blocker is enabled! Please add this site to your exception list.");
        window.location.href = 'warning.html';
 } else {
        //Popup Allowed
        window.open('','_self');
        window.close();
} 

Any better solution that works for Chrome also?

 setTimeout( function() {

Try Below..!!

var pop = window.open("about:blank", "new_window_123", "height=150,width=150");

// Detect pop blocker
setTimeout(function() {
if(!pop || pop.closed || pop.closed == "undefined" || pop == "undefined" || parseInt(pop.innerWidth) == 0 || pop.document.documentElement.clientWidth != 150 || pop.document.documentElement.clientHeight != 150){
pop && pop.close();
alert("Popups must be enabled.");
}else{
alert("Popups is enabled.");
pop && pop.close();
}}, 1000);

I found it much more effective to use try-catch as follows:

var popup = window.open(winPath,winName,winFeature,true);
try {
    popup.focus();
} catch (e) {
    alert('popup blocked!');
}

Answer 4

I know this is "resolved", but this simple code worked for me detecting "Better Popup Blocker" extension in Chrome:

  if (!window.print) {
    //display message to disable popup blocker
  } else {
    window.print();
  }
}

Ockham's razor! Or am I missing something and it couldn't possibly be this simple?

Answer 6

The below code works in chrome,safari and firefox. I have used jquery for this.

var popupWindow = window.open("http://www.google.com","directories=no,height=100,width=100");

$(document).ready(function(e) {
    detectPopup();
    function detectPopup() {
    if(!popupWindow) {
        alert("popup will be blocked");

    } else {
        alert("popup will be shown");
        window.open('','_self');
        window.close();
    } 
}
});
