How do I enable pop-ups -- generally or for a particular site. (Tablet version 9 or 10)

I have a corporate page that requires pop-ups to load. Actually it requires two pop-ups to load. So stock android 3.2 and Dolphin both choke with a "cannot open second pop-up window" message even after pop-ups are enabled. I'd like to see if Firefox for tablets will work, but I can't get past even permitting the first pop-up.

After you click the Show button, the pop-up will appear in a new tab.

When the site tries to launch a pop-up and Firefox's Show/Always/Never page appears in the background, a message appears in the foreground - "The page at ... says: The session manager window failed to open because your Web browser is configured to block pop-ups." When I click OK in that foreground box, that box and the background Show/etc page disappear. I.e., I never get to say, "trust pop-ups for this site." Is there any way to do this manually?
