First off thanks for all the help. I am truly inspired by this forum. This is a great place for learning. I have read through many posts and have learned a great deal from other peoples posts and questions, so thanks again.
Now for my question. I have a set of buttons that I have made into a swf. I am using them to navigate my site, only thing is that when i click on a button, the swf opens on top of my html page that is holding my main swf (in param tags) and over laps the whole page, anyway. I tried, when I was scripting the buttons, this:
on (release) {
getURL(“flash/LoadMovie/loadmovie.swf”, \_blank);
}
on (release) {
getURL(“flash/LoadMovie/loadmovie.swf”, \_top);
}
I would like to have the swf movies open to about 400 by 300 px and and centered. Also, I would like to add a “close window” button to the movie that has been opened.
can someone help me with this?
here is my new site:

Ok I am a tad bit confused but are you trying to load a flash movie intro your current flash movie or do you want it to replace your current movie?

which links to the swf file it either replaces the page(html page that the links are on) or over laps it completey(depending on which pc i am on at the time). I guess what I want is just to be able to click on a link in my swf movie and open a swf movie in a small popout window and have a close button on the movie that is popped out. Did you check out the page, maybe you can see what I mean. Sorry for not explaining this well, in my head I know exactly what I want to say lol:)
thanks for helping,
toad
