I’m making a presentation in flash. I would like to show some of my previous work in flash (.swf-files) The presentation is fullscreen and i publish it as an .exe file.  
In the presentation there are several links. When you click on one of those, a own made pop-up opens. In this pop-up i would like to show the animation (.swf file)  
But…I found out that some of the .swf files don’t work when you import them into flash…  
So instead i used the load movie command. (I’m not very good in actionscript)  
The swf file opens, but not IN the pop-up. How do i do that?  
My pop-up now dissapears and my swf starts to play  
I hope you know what i mean and i hope someone can help me  
I’ve already tried sooo much!!

I don’t know anything about .exe swfs but would like try and answer your question. If the base movie plays in a browser, then you could do this for a popup:

```php
function OpenPopup()
	{
		window.open('yourswfpage.htm','swfTitle','toolbar=0, location=0,directories=0,status=0,menubar=0,scrollbars=0,resizable=0,width=472,height=260,left=200,top=150')
	
		}

```

This is probably not what you are looking for but it’s all I know . . .
