I am new to Flash, been messing around with some tutorials to get a feel. I tried to do the \*\*Centered Pop-Up Window \*\*tutorial.

[http://www.kirupa.com/developer/flash8/centered\_popup\_window.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/flash8/centered_popup_window.htm)

I could not get this to work when I did it from the ground up. Is there something I am missing?

Any help would be great.

i just did it rather quickly so i could be wrong, but i think its a security thing. it wont interact with the javascript because your running it from your computer, if you download something like wampserver, which is like a test server u run on your machine, it should work fine.

wamp server is pretty straight forward to set up and you get everything you need for testing your sites.
