i meant to say i didnt get it…

Put this on your button (on the stage)

on (release) {
getURL("javascript:openNewWindow(‘Demo. html’,‘thewin’,'height=500,width=650,toolbar=no,sc

rollbars=no’) ");
}

and then put this on the html/asp page that contains the flash movie that links the user to the no resize pop up window

----script language=“JavaScript”—
function openNewWindow(URLtoOpen, windowName, windowFeatures) {
newWindow=window.open(URLtoOpen, windowName, windowFeatures); }
----/script–

post back if there are problems
also if you get this

wait i see it… what does teh flash part by theWin mean… what do i put there, also what if i want just a scrollbar, tahts all the features i want

Javascript allows you to name different stuff, pages, forms, inputs, etc.

we just named that new window, ‘theWin’
You could pass it(name it) whatever you want,

scrollbar, hold on a second

9

scrollbars = yes

on (release) {
getURL("javascript:openNewWindow(‘Demo. html’,‘thewin’,‘height=500,width=650,toolbar=no,scrollbars=yes’) ");
}

Cheez, did you get it to work?

11

----script language=“JavaScript”—
function openNewWindow(URLtoOpen, windowName, windowFeatures) {
newWindow=window.open(URLtoOpen, windowName, windowFeatures); }
----/script–

this is the part that always gives me problems. should this go in the head or the body of the page or doesnt it matter?

12

in the <head> is the correct way, but the body will also work

13

in the -head- is the correct way, but the body will also work

14

i think something is wrong wit the code for the -head- cuz i tested it and the code is showing up in my page.

15

go here

view source and the javascript that is directly under the end title tag is exactly the way you want it

got it??

16

actually u missed something. I noticed in the link that u gave that the page had
this tag just beneath the body opening tag

<!--<A HREF="#" TARGET="_self" onClick="window.open('Demo.html','Demo','toolbar=no,width=650,height=500,left=175,top=100, status=no,scrollbars=no,resize=no');return false">
Launch Demo</A>.-->

<****!— means that something is commented out in html and is not used, my --a href that links to the no-resize pop up window --is in the flsh movie

behind a button.
The original question of this thread was how do you do a pop window (no-resize) FROM a flash movie to anothr page

So, i did not forget anything—thank you
