# Popup Tips

## Overview

When a Base Account is connected and Coinbase Wallet SDK receives a request, it opens
[keys.coinbase.com](https://keys.coinbase.com/) in a popup window and passes the request to the popup for handling.
Keep the following points in mind when working with the Base Account popup.

## Default blocking behavior

* Most modern browsers block all popups by default, unless they are triggered by a click.
* If a popup is blocked the browser shows a notification to the user, allowing them to manage popup settings.

### What to do about it

* Ensure there is no additional logic between the button click and the request to open the Base Account popup,
  as browsers might perceive the request as programmatically initiated.
* If logic is unavoidable, keep it minimal and test thoroughly in all supported browsers.

## `Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy`

If the Base Account popup opens and displays an error or infinite spinner, it may be due to the dapp's `Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy`. Be sure to use a directive that allows the Base Account popup to function.

* ✅ Allows Base Account popup to function
  * `unsafe-none` (default)
  * `same-origin-allow-popups` (recommended)
* ❌ Breaks Base Account popup
  * `same-origin`

For more detailed information refer to the [MDN docs](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy).

## Base Account popup 'linger' behavior

* Sometimes a dapp may programmatically make a followup request based on the response to a previous request.
  Normally, browsers block these programmatic requests to open popups.
* To address this, after the Base Account popup responds to a request, it will linger for 200ms to listen for another incoming request before closing.
  * If a request is received *during* this 200ms window, it will be received and handled within the same popup window.
  * If a request is received *after* the 200ms window and the popup has closed, opening the Base Account popup will be blocked by the browser.
