Re: Great Australian Internet Blackout

I think this is a great idea, but unfortunately some of my web sites are 
necessarily commercial and can't afford to lose visitors while they figure out 
what is going on.

Is it possible to modify the script so that the window times out after a short 
time (and better still.. has a notice on it that SAYS it's going to do so).

I would do it myself but my javascript skills are zero. I know the client can 
close the window... but...

I'm sure this idea would then get better penetration.
