I’ll be more specific i want the kind of window that u cannot resize and it is exactly the same size as your flash player… how do I do this… I used to know it easily but HTML and JAVA have gone right out of my head.
if anyone can help that’d be great!
Thanx SpitwolF :crazy:
do a search on the forums for this…
centered popup, chromeless window…
but beware. they are evil.
why do you want to take away features of the browser? Design of a site should include the ability to go “back” if the user wishes. People are used to using the “back” button, so don’t take it away…
seriously, people hate them.

dreamweaver 3
> select the link(graphic) on text u have to add # or the link
> press F8 key or window menu >> behaviours
> click on + sign, open browser window >> browse the link >> u select height and width >> now dont checkmark on resize handles as u dont want user to resize the window.
> give appropiate window name
that’s it, make sure u select onclick event in behaviour window, it comes onmouseover and use events for internet explorer 4.0 and later…
resize can only be blocked in internet explorer 5.5 and above.
then again there’s always ‘control key + N’ option and load more ways to open it in new window.
btw rev is right, pop up windows can be annoying.

think dreamweaver MX is a bit different than, and was hoping to learn on HTML… think the guy was talkin bout the fact you use dreamweaver n not notepad. (which is what I’m trying to recap)

How come so many designers use them.
Fullscreen attribute is worse!!!
You need something like this:
<a href="#" class="textstyle" onClick="MM_openBrWindow(filename.htm','windowname','toolbar=yes,menubar=yes,width=730,height=420')">
Where height and width are the dimensions of your Flash movie…
if Flash is vector what about
Width = avail.width *08
Height = Width * (flash movie l/w scale factor)?

yea i was talking about dreamweaver only, there are other ways to open, size, resize and stuff too, i m lazy myself, dont spend somuch time on coding thru html…
another question now… heeh sorry… urm got the coding off the tutorial… its fine and dandy apart from the fact that I cnt get the actual flash file to fit properly in the window… its a little to the left and down… any ideas?
cheers
spitwolF i had this problem with a pop up gallery i made, i found if you give the pop up windows about 15 to 20 extra pixels above the size of your movie it works fine, i think its cause the HTML lines the swf up by default from a top and left margin thus removing the bottom and right edges.
Either the above or you could try putting the SWF in a layer inside the pop up window…other than that im not sure.
