Hey, I used the pop-up tutorial here on kirupa, and heres what I got:  
in the as layer i have :

```auto

_global.openWinCentre = function(url, winName, w, h, toolbar, location, directories, status, menubar, scrollbars, resizable) {
		getURL("javascript:window.open('"+url+"','"+winName+"','"+"width="+w+",height="+h+",toolbar="+toolbar+",location="+location+",directories="+directories+",status="+status+",menubar="+menubar+",scrollbars="+scrollbars+",resizable="+resizable+",top='+((screen.height/2)-("+h/2+"))+',left='+((screen.width/2)-("+w/2+"))+'"+"');void(0);");
};

```

and on the button I got this:

```auto

on (rollOver) {
 tellTarget ("/enter") {
  gotoAndPlay("over");
 }
}
on (release) {
 // customize the window that gets opened
 // 0 equals NO.
 // 1 equals YES.
 address = "index2.htm";
 target_winName = "vsf";
 width = 482;
 height = 421;
 toolbar = 0;
 location = 0;
 directories = 0;
 status = 0;
 menubar = 0;
 scrollbars = 0;
 resizable = 0;
 // sends data back to the function
 openWinCentre(address, target_winName, width, height, toolbar, location, directories, status, menubar, scrollbars, resizable);
}

```

But when I view it online th pop up doesn’t work, it does when I view it in my folders, and in opera the pop-up works, but it still have scrollbar and it is lot of white space in top so it get weird.

Anyone able to help get it work?
