Hi,

I am trying to generate a simple pop up window which is easy enough following the online tutorial. The tutorial assumes however that you are generating the popup window from your flash document inside a HTML page.

I want to generate a popup window from a layer deeper than that. I have a html page that has a flash document which then loads other flash documents into a container and I want to generate the popup window from there…

Can someone please help???

Thanks  
Steve
