I came across the following javascript code that creates a fullscreen pop up window from a rollover button (html/javascript) that appears to be unaffected by popup blockers in IE (or at least on my computers it’s unaffected). However, when I adapt the button code to actionscript for use with a flash button it starts to trigger the popup blocker. Can someone help me figure out the correct actionscript to make this work without being blocked?

---------- Flash Button (Not working properly) ----------

on (release) {  
getURL(“javascript:openNewWindow(‘main.htm’,‘0’,‘screen.availHeight’,‘screen.availWidth’)”);  
}

---------- Javascript Button ----------

\<a href="#null" onClick=“opensesame(‘main.htm’,0 ,screen.availWidth, screen.availHeight)” onMouseOut=“MM\_swapImgRestore()” onMouseOver=“MM\_swapImage(‘portfolio’,’’,‘splash/sn\_port\_over.jpg’,1)”\>\<img src=“splash/sn\_port.jpg” alt=“portfolio” name=“portfolio” width=“206” height=“37” border=“0”\>\</a\>

---------- Javascript head code ----------

\<script language=“JavaScript”\>  
\<!–  
function SymError()  
{  
return true;  
}  
window.onerror = SymError;  
var SymRealWinOpen = window.open;  
function SymWinOpen(url, name, attributes)  
{  
return (new Object());  
}  
window.open = SymWinOpen;  
//–\>  
\</script\>

\<script language=“JavaScript” type=“text/JavaScript”\>  
\<!–  
var aw = screen.availWidth;  
var ah = screen.availHeight;  
var vWidth = screen.width;  
var vHeight = screen.height;

function opensesame (url, full, w, h) {  
var opts = “width=”+ w +",height="+ h +",scrollbars=0";  
if(full == true) opts += “,fullscreen=1”;  
//opts += “,top=”+(ah-720)/2+",left="+(aw-1000)/2;  
opts += “,top=0,left=0”;  
var ow = window.open(url,“ow”,opts);  
ow.focus();  
}  
var win = null;  
function newWindow(mypage,myname,w,h,features) {  
var winl = (screen.width-w)/2;  
var wint = (screen.height-h)/2;  
if (winl \< 0) winl = 0;  
if (wint \< 0) wint = 0;  
var settings = ‘height=’ + h + ‘,’;  
settings += ‘width=’ + w + ‘,’;  
settings += ‘top=’ + wint + ‘,’;  
settings += ‘left=’ + winl + ‘,’;  
settings += features;  
win = window.open(mypage,myname,settings);  
win.window.focus();
