If JavaScript is used for a pop-up window, to keep it to a specific size, does the script prevent the search engines from reading the content in that window?

My understanding is that it would, but I just want to make sure.

Thanks...

Depends if you code the link to the popup to degrade if javascript isn't used. If you do then it will be indexed. if you don't, it probably won't.

Thanks. That's what I figured. So I disabled JS on the page and the pop-ups don't work. Can I assume that the SE's won't be able to read those pages?

How would I go about making it so it "degrades"?

v basic e.g.

function doPop(url) {

	var newWin = window.open(url,'popup','width=500,height=300');

}

…

<a href="destination.html" onclick="doPop(this.href); return false;">destination</a>
