☹ I’ve been pulling out my hair over this popup issue in IE.

I’ve tried this: [http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/centered\_popup.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/centered_popup.htm) and via the site it works OK in IE and Netscape. When I try to run the same files locally it won’t work. It’s a local player/bug issue isn’t it?

I’m Running Win XP SP2, Flash MX 2004 Pro, Flash 8 Player.

Please somone guide me. Thanks.

Pie.
