This is a simple JavaScript:popup() window prepared in MX . If it is possibe, I want to learn two things,
I would like to change the title of the window instead of the seeing the name and the addrees of the file. I painted it in red color on the attached image.
I tried to send the location of my web site in hotmail to others like (http:/www…) but in the mail the blue collered link reaches to the first page and then when the popup window starts, it gives an error. If the address is written directly to the address field it works weel . But direct link from hotmail the popup window doesn’t work. What can be the reason? Is it a common problem or is it a problem of my file? I hope I could explain it clear.
Problem number one’s answer:
Changing the title bar is done in html. In the <head> of your HTML file, put this:
<title>This is your Title</title>
Problem number two:
If you are just sending a regular email, the only link that you will be able to use is the http links. If you want something to popup in a sized window, you will either have to include a swf movie in your email (that will NOT show up in all email servers) or write your emails in HTML and enable HTML and include the javascript (which may be misconstrued by some mail servers as a virus). Either way, I wouldn’t suggest it. Why not have a regular link in an email like: http://www.yoursitehere.com
and then have a splash page to enter a popup, or adjust the size of the window you link to with a simple javascript like found here: http://www.kirupaforum.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=23564&highlight=screenWidth
Good luck!
But I need to explain my problem a little bit more in detail. So I added files to this address,
Here, there are two different examples one is chromeless and one is a normal popup. At the beginning I preferred to use chromeless window but it is working as a window in my computer. But I checked it in other computers it works as fullscreen. (I don’t know how it works in your computers.) Because I don’t know how to change the size and location of chromeless window. (It looks different than the normal popup that I have) , I preferred not to take a risk and use a normal Popup. The only thing in the normal one I don’t want to see the whole address and the file name like at the title . If I can write only “Portfolio” as a title , I can use the normal one. I tried to change the title as you explained but I couldn’t manage.
I hope I explained my situation more clearer.
1)I don’t know how to change the chromeless window from fullscreen to a defined sized and located window
2)If I have to use normal one, I don’t know how to change the whole title
I see what you mean. Well, the chromeless worked on my computer, but will not work on all. I personally don’t like using them for that reason. Since you are already in a Flash movie, have you considered loading in external swf files? Then you could customize a window that wouldn’t really be windows.
If you do opt to use the HTML way with the window’s window, you will have to put that swf file (main3.swf) into a HTML file and then adjust the title like I posted. Unfortunately, it will always have the browser name on the end, example:
Portfolio 1 - Microsoft Internet Explorer
I don’t know if you can get rid of that or not, but I’ve always seen it. Let me know if you have any other questions!!
At the end I managed to change the title. I think using normal popup is enough for my plans right now. Because I am new with Flash. I learned this site yesterday from a friend and registered today. And I already learned very important things. It is a very good place. I will keep sharing ideas, questions and solutions.
