Internet+Explorer+Settings+for+PALMS

When using Internet Explorer, you may experience problems when attempting to export a CSV file or KML file. A browser window will open and then immediately close. Sometimes a beep will be heard. This behavior is caused by IE's default pop-up blocker and Internet Security settings, which must be changed for use with PALMS:

Pop-up Blocker Settings

 * 1) Click on the Tools menu.
 * 2) Move the cursor to Pop-up Blocker
 * 3) If you see the phrase "Turn on Pop-up Blocker", then your IE blocker is turned off. Proceed to the Internet Security Settings.
 * 4) If you see the phrase "Pop-up Blocker Settings", then your IE blocker is turned on. Click on the Settings.
 * 5) In the text box "Address of website to allow" enter palms.ucsd.edu and click the Add button.
 * 6) Click the Close button.


 * NOTE:** You may have another pop-up blocker installed by Google, Yahoo, or some other 3rd party software. If so, follow their instructions for turning off the blocker when using PALMS.
