AS 2.0  
Trying to pass a variable as well and cant seem to escape to pass it. How can I pass using window.open as such: Trying to pass (pid) all i get back is (pid) and not actual pid.

How to on a jscommand?

```auto

something.onRelease = function () {
var jscommand:String = "window.open('http://www.someform.php?proj= + (pid)','win','height=200,width=300,toolbar=no,scrollbars=yes');"; getURL("javascript:" + jscommand + " void(0);"); }

```

I can do a standard getUrl(“[http://www.someform.php?proj=](http://www.someform.php?proj=)” + (pid), “\_blank”);  
works fine but no control over window properties.
