javascript Iframe PopUp help

I am implementing a popup with javascript which fire when the page is closed . I am using the unload() page handler. The problem is that the popup does not stays ... it popups for a while but then the new page loads.

I want it to stay there until user presses cancel..

you actually want your site blacklisted
you want to open a window to override user actions
Not a particularly good idea

Actually i am firing a function to show a MOOdle popup.
Here is the code.
I donot know whats wrong with it..

It starts to appear and then vanishes.

<html>
<head>
<title></title>

<script type="text/javascript" src="javascript/moodalbox121compressed/js/mootools.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="javascript/moodalbox.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="javascript/modalbox.js"></script>
<link href="javascript/moodalbox.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen">
<script type="text/javascript">
window.onbeforeunload = popup;
function popup(){
MOOdalBox.open( "popup.htm","Some kind of caption", "450 305" )
}</script>

</head>

Well, it's all about how that moodle dialog works. I was talking about unload event on and use of an alert() message. Try using window.stop() function from javascript (to stop the browser) and after you press OK or close the dialog use window.location.href="new_location" to redirect the browser. I can be wrong.. stop doesn't always work on all browsers... but I try to help somehow :).

the window.stop also does not works...
The popup loads but there is just a flash and then it vanishes...
I want it to load completely.
