I have a little question about the centered pop-up window tutorial: How do I replace the web address with a swf. file, so that every time the user clicks the link, a swf.page opens.

I`m not so good with actionscripting… :hat:

Why don’t you just embed the swf file into the html doc you’re going to open?

Place the code below into the HTML page you’re going to open in the pop-up. Make sure you add in the name and the size of your swf file as well.

```php
<EMBED src="your.swf" quality="high" WIDTH="300" HEIGHT="300" TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash" PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash"></EMBED>

```
