Search Engines & Pop-up Windows
Can anyone tell me if pop-up windows which are opened using Javascript are detected by search engines such as Google? The reason I ask is that I'm designing a website for a friend and a lot of the site contains pop-up windows with 360 degree panoramas in QuickTime and Java embedded into them...don't ask why this is just the way he wanted it built!! Anyway, he's now asking whether these windows that pop-up will get listed on the search engines such as google. I didn't think they would because as far as I am aware search engine robots don't follow "Javascript" links. Can anyone confirm this is the case??

Google toolbar has a pop up killer. I hate pop-ups and would advise against them as best you can.
