i tried using this tutorial  
[http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/centered\_popup.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/centered_popup.htm)

what i want to do is have a link that opens up a new cutom-sized window that contains a quicktime video.  
i believe this is fairly smple to do. ive made a html page with the video embedded via dreamweaver to link to, i just cant get it to work via a button in flash. anyone know of a way that will work, or a better way, am i going about this wrong?
