Well, I thought that was what was necessary, but as your comment
suggested, it is unlikely such code will be readily available. However,
I think it makes more sense, at least for my purposes, to instruct the
user to add our application website to the 'allow pop-ups' list. This is
a new application were building-- and our company is not to the point
where we're selling ads to appear within our hosted apps. If this
application becomes so popular and pervasive that we start selling ads,
well, then I'd need to reconsider the solution...
This brings up another issue--pop-up Help vs. embedded Help--which I'll
address in another posting..

I thought you want to push it out with the html code from the help's
end.
