Ok, im a little confused here. I’ve been trying to use the [[color=#800080]Launch a Centered Pop-Up Window[/color]](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/centered_popup.htm) tutorial technique with customising my own context menus. I’ve been working on this today and seem to have encountered the problem of the following:-

personalised context menu only works under flash 7, (flash 2004 thing) whilst

centred pop up doesnt want to work only in flash 7 (whilst fine in 5 & 6).

Is the centered pop-up oldschool now and flash 7 doesnt support it, am i doing something wrong, or something? I changed the button to use the [**[color=#800080]Creating a Hyperlink[/color]**](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/hyperlink.htm) simple method demonstrated in one of your mx tutorials and that works fine!

Hope i’ve explained enough, any questions or solutions welcome!

thanks, Dave

Hi

Sorry Dave,

I dont fine soltion either, but still reading this tutorial i feel only machine having flash player 7 can suppors contextmenus.

Yea the customising context menu im sure is flash 7 only. Thats fine its is just, Launch a Centered Pop-Up Window tutorial (link in first message) doesnt seem to want to work for me under flash 7, which i found strange? anyone fancy testing this one out to see if they can get it to work in flash 7?
