Hi,
Got a client who wants to launch a separate browser automatically - no clicks. An example would be the lingerie site (do I have your attention?) \\*\*\*[www.laperla.com](http://www.laperla.com)\*\*\*\ where it does a Flash check and loads a thank you - the popup giving you the English or Italian option. BTW, this is a very cool site - a little out-dated, but worth a look.
Is this an onclipEvent? What’s the actionscript here? I am assuming that the page from which it is launched has the usual newWindow function JS in the HTML ref’ed in the getURL("javascript:newWindow… of the Flash, blah, blah, but how do you get it to pop the getURL on its own?
Thanks,
AC

Howdy…
Same thing will be used to open the window… If it is button it will be within the on (press) { getURL(blah blah); }, right??? Instead, you just put the getURL() function in the frame where you want the new window to be opened… For example, have a blank key frame on frame 30 and put that getURL() line to see the new window… (It will be abit of painful within the authoring mode, but check it out in the browser…)
