Hi All

I have created 2 Flash movies in the form of a slideshow.  
The flash clips are embedded in the webpage that I was modifying and it works perfectly fine.

What I would like to do is to allow users to be able to click on the flash image in the web pages. Once clicked, a new pop-up window will appear and it will show the freeze image of the flash that was being clicked at the moment.

Currently I am only able to make the new pop-up window and the flash still played through itself in it while I need it to freeze and be static.

Can anyone kindly give me some advice?

thank u
