How to define a movie title on popup window?

1

hi all.

the pop-up window always automaticly generates and shows full web directory of the movie as its title on top of the browser. can i define this title inside MX so it could simply show anything i want it to be?

thanks in advance

Are you using the pop up window tutorial from Kirupa by any chance? If so you can specify the target window name . . .


on (release) {
	//customize the window that gets opened
	// 0 equals NO.
	// 1 equals YES.
	address = "http://www.kirupa.com/modular/pop-up.htm";
	**target_winName = "kirupa";**
	width = 400;
	height = 300;
	toolbar = 0;
	location = 0;
	directories = 0;
	status = 0;
	menubar = 0;
	scrollbars = 1;
	resizable = 0;
	//sends data back to the function
	openWinCentre(address, target_winName, width, height, toolbar, location, directories, status, menubar, scrollbars, resizable);
}

hi Lunatic, here is my another question, what if the pop-up is opened by click a link at a HTML like below:

<HTML><HEAD><TITLE>index</TITLE>
<META http-equiv=Content-Type content=“text/html; charset=iso-8859-1”>
<SCRIPT language=JavaScript>
<!–
window.moveTo(0,0);
if (document.all) {
top.window.resizeTo(screen.availWidth,screen.availHeight);
}
else if (document.layers||document.getElementById) {
if (top.window.outerHeight<screen.availHeight||top.window.outerWidth<screen.availWidth){
top.window.outerHeight = screen.availHeight;
top.window.outerWidth = screen.availWidth;
}
}
window.moveTo(0,0);

var win= null;
function NewWindow(mypage,myname,w,h,scroll){
var winl = (screen.width-w)/2;
var wint = (screen.height-h)/2;
var settings =‘height=’+h+’,’;
settings +=‘width=’+w+’,’;
settings +=‘top=’+wint+’,’;
settings +=‘left=’+winl+’,’;
settings +=‘scrollbars=’+scroll+’,’;
settings +=‘resizable=no’;
win=window.open(mypage,myname,settings);
if(parseInt(navigator.appVersion) >= 4){win.window.focus();}
}
//–>
</SCRIPT>

Well I’m not too great with html and I know nothing of Javascript. But a couple of things stick out at me.

win=window.open(mypage,myname,settings);

and

onclick="NewWindow(this.href,‘LWL’,‘1200’,‘830’,‘no’)

For the first it seems like its ready to accept a variable myname. I assume you can set that somewhere.

For the second it looks like NewWindow is being created with a bunch of specific parameters. Seems like a window title could also be specified in there.

But I don’t know where to put additional code - sorry :frowning: Maybe try posting that code in another forum topic - the Clientside one for html and JS etc.
