I love that image gallery. What I want to do is be able to click on an image and then have a pop-up window appear with the full size image…any suggestions how?

I’m using MX 2004 Pro. ActionScript 1.0 or 2.0 will work.

Thanks!,

You could make a thumbnail for instance of your pic, and make it into a button to launch a pop-up!:

Thanks for the response!

So, would I make each image into a movie and then instead of “image0.jpg” it be “image0.swf”?

Thanks!,

If you use a HTML editor like DW, put your image on a page in there, call the page “your_image.html”, and then use this code on your button:

on (release) {
// customize the window that gets opened
// 0 equals NO.
// 1 equals YES.
address = “http://www.your_site.nl/your_image.html”;
target_winName = “inflicted”;
width = 806;
height = 700;
toolbar = 0;
location = 0;
directories = 0;
status = 0;
menubar = 0;
scrollbars = 0;
resizable = 0;
// sends data back to the function
openWinLeft(address, target_winName, width, height, toolbar, location, directories, status, menubar, scrollbars, resizable);
}
