I need some help to:

  1. open a window 640 X 480 not resizeable!
  2. Get rid of my Black BG so only the red is visible!
  3. use a pre-loader propery to load my music!!

If anyone knows the answer to any of these!

Your first question,

You could use the component in the last post in this thread:

As long as your using Flash MX that is, Make a button drag that component onto your stage and onto the button and then configure the options at the bottom for your window. You could change your enter graphic to a flash movie and use that component in it.

Dunno if that was any help? I like your site, very stylish.

Cheers :nerd:

If you want to do it the Javascript way I wrote a .txt file for someone else on this forum that needed it. It shows the basic way of creating a pop-up window. You can even make it NON-Resizeable.

I have included the .txt file as an attachment to this post. I hope it helps.

For question two, If you make the pop-up window the same size as your movie, you don’t have to worry about that black background, it won’t be seen.

  1. use a pre-loader propery to load my music!!

Well you do it in the same way as you would do for a normal preloaded, but you would have to get the bytes of the _level you have loaded your movie in to.
