Thanks to everyone for the enthusiastic feedback on the widget. We’ve made a few minor fixes here and there but I wanted to announce one important enhancement we just pushed. Now the script tag you embed in your site has an additional attribute called “ownwin.” This attribute is set to false by default, but if you want the reader to pop in its own tab instead of in the same window, just set this attribute to “true” instead. So the tag will then look like:

<script src="..." ownwin="true"></script>

This addresses some situations where sites are using framed content which won’t allow the reader to overlay properly. Thanks again for the feedback. Continue to let us know about layout issues, as we can’t predict or simulate the many environments this thing might be exposed to.
