Opening fixed browser window

ok. i’ve tried all the tutorials on kirupa, checked out adobe live docs, forums all the works and i’ve tried 20 different methods to open a browser window with a fixed width and height. i’m using Flash 8 and am wondering if there is a new method for opening a browser window with ixed params. it seems every tutorial i find is for flash 5 or earlier and none of them work. and i’ve tried opening them both in firefox and ie. the standard getURL _blank works fine of course…i just need to adjust the window size to scale to an image. any help would be GREATLY appreciate!
