IE Address Bar in popup windows
In IE by default the address bar and the status bar is turned off for windows opened by JavaScript and that is fin for users but I want to see it when developing. The issue is that this is really a security thing so I always for get where to go to turn it on so here is how you do it…
First open the “Internet Options” dialog box & select the “Security” tab:
Here you select the zone you want to modify (I do the steps below for each zone)
Then select “Custom level…”:
Scroll down under “Miscellaneous” and find the setting “Allow websites to open windows address or status bars” and select “Enable” (by default it’s Disabled)
Now when you open a window you will see the address bar and be able to copy the URL if needed for debugging.
