It's not possible to disable popup block on Opera Mini. Popup windows are blocked for a reason on Opera Mini server. That way you avoid not being directed to some advertisement pages instead of getting the requested page opened.

More information here:

All other events are ignored/not applicable, for example:
key/mouse events (onMouseOver/-Out/-Down/-Up, onKeyDown/-KeyPress)
focus events (onBlur, onFocus, as mentioned above)

This sounds limiting, but there is another point to consider - Opera Mini can execute JavaScript on the server if it's triggered by the JavaScript events listed above in the client, so some complex pages work surprisingly well - for instance Facebook is able to display popup menus and popup dialogs very well on Opera Mini.


Although it's written for OM4, it still should go for OM5 as well.
