okay - i read the ‘Launching a Centered Pop-Up Window’ and everything works okay, but here is my question:
i have 3 separate links from the main page that need to be pop-ups. do i make a layer for each button in order to put the script in on the time line?

you could write a function for it 🙂 and then just pass it through.
[AS]
//put this in frame
function popMyWindowsBaby(passURL) {
getURL(passURL, “\_self”);
}
//put this on your button
on(release) {
popMyWindowsBaby(‘javascript:your javascript code here;’);
}

and by the way – thanks – your answers really help.

i´m sorry but could you explain a bit more the code?
[AS]
//put this in frame
function popMyWindowsBaby(passURL) {
getURL(passURL, “\_self”); WHY \_SELF IF IT IS A POPUP? AND IN WHAT FRAME YOU MEAN TO PUT IT??
}
//put this on your button
on(release) {
popMyWindowsBaby(‘about :your javascript code here;’); DOES ABOUT: GOES OR IT´S JUST AN EXAMPLE AND WHAT YOU MEAN BY JAVASCRIPT CODE HERE??
}
i´m sorry again if these questions are too newbie ::))
