yel…low, I used the tutorial to make borderless windows (pop-ups) found at: [www.kirupa.com/developer/flash5/borderless.asp](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/flash5/borderless.asp)

It works great on explorer, and netscape 6, but when I tried it on AOL (not a personal favorite, but still alot of people use it) it totally exploded on my face. Anyone knows how to fix this bug, if it’s even fixable? I really liked the tutorial, and the way it looks… Thanx in advance…

I don’t think there is an AOL fix. I think you will just have to put a notice on your site to view in Internet Explorer. It would be great if someone found a way to open up an IE window (or other browser) from inside AOL, instead of having the windows pop up inside the AOL interface.
