Are you suggesting that I'm not sincere in my need for help? Because I am
still no further in figuring out why it is happening... I didn't post the
link to invade people with popups I asked why it was happening when there is
no reference to it in the code. I came here for help obviously you
"stupidly" clicked on something that you shouldn't have but I did say I was
a newbie at html so I'm sorry I included the link but on my computer this
link comes up as a blank page...
