@Heath, The demo will show you the page that you are on, The reason that you won’t see the survey popup again if you refresh the page is because when you initially closed the popup the plugin stores a cookie so it knows the user has already interacted with the survey, this is done as not to annoy your users. It should be quite easy to change the link, you can do this in the HTML of the download. Many Thanks

Hello Philip,

Thank you for the script. I’ve been attempting to implement it, however I’ve ran into a few issues. One being, after I hit the “X” (close) and refresh the page, it goes to a blank page. To me, it should popup again. I understand when you hit the “take survey” button it goes to a blank page because you’ve set it to # in the code. Any suggestions? Thnx, H

@steve, I have checked the plugin on the browsers you mentioned and I cant see any issues. I am going to assume you actually read the post before clicking the demo and making your own assumptions on what this plugin actually does. I offer this solution to less technical people who would like to implement a free feature on their site. It’s great to know you could do this better in 1 hour, but it does beg the question why you found this page. Happy coding

A disgrace, really. It doesnt work in 4 browsers I tried with, IE8, Opera 10, 2 versions of Firefox. Not sure how one could progress to a 3 page post with a custom ‘demo’ page for something that doesnt work… no one proof reads or tests anymore?

Good thing I use ADBLOCK so I can rest assured I didnt burn my eyes on any ads!

Dont reinvent the wheel, just use a Wizard plug in and any of the light box plugins to do the trick..1hr, tops!

The demo isn’t working for me in FF 3.5 or Safari. The “Take Survey” link doesn’t do anything, and, once I’ve closed the object, successive reloads of the page don’t even show the link to take the survey.
