I tried unselecting do not track, this did not help. I checked the Android settings and set to allow coockies... This is Android Icecream Sandwich and Asus EEEpad slider model sl101. with out this feature I can not use Firefox. Chrome has an optio to disable popupblocker in settings cant find it on FF.

Sudheesh001,

Flipping that DOM preference is not advised and will not disable the pop-up blocker.

Patrick,

When you visit the site requesting a popup, a doorhanger will display offering the choice of denying all future pop-ups from appearing the site. You can clear this settings by long-tapping on the URL bar and selecting 'Edit Site Settings', and then clearing 'Block Popups'. Refresh the site and then the pop-up door-hanger will appear again and then going forward you can show the popups requested from that particular site.
