pop up input boxes
hi i'd like to have a pop up box that loads when a customer first enters the site asking for and email and also having radio boxes for a user to enter what he likes.nfl,nba,ncaa, and so on that i might get in contact with them when i get what they like in stock.also id like to be able to have a pop up window for a contest where a customer gives email in return for a chance to answer a ? for a gift.

One, what's your question?
Two, assuming that you want to do this and don't know how, what you want to do is build a page with a form on it with all the bits you want. This form would be processed using formmail or something similar (cgi/asp/et cetera).
The pop-up part is just how it gets displayed. Using a JavaScript script like zerocattle.com/examples/popUp.html , but putting the call in the tag (using onLoad instead of onClick, for instance) would make it automatic. It would be nicer if you didn't, of course, and just made a nice big showy link "SIGN UP FOR OUR NEWSLETTER AND WIN!" with the popup.

thanks for the info susan,and i guess your right about popup window possibly being a invasion of privacy to certain people and offering them a choice to register.i think i'll try it your way first and see how it goes.
thank you
