I’m trying to figure out the as for a Flash popup that will launch a window that dims the background (see [http://www.huddletogether.com/projects/lightbox2/](http://www.huddletogether.com/projects/lightbox2/) for reference. Just like this, but actionscript) - all in Flash, no Javascript or CSS. It will be launched from an XML loaded image. Is this possible?
