Hi, I’m having some trouble using the window component examples provided w/ Flash 8. I’m using this example: (1) Place Window Component in Library. (2) Put this actionscript on Frame 1:

```auto
/**
Requires:
- Window component in library
*/

import mx.managers.PopUpManager;
import mx.containers.Window;

System.security.allowDomain("http://www.flash-mx.com");

var my_win:MovieClip = PopUpManager.createPopUp(this, Window, true, {closeButton:true, contentPath:"http://www.flash-mx.com/images/image1.jpg"});
var winListener:Object = new Object();
winListener.click = function(evt_obj:Object) {
my_win.deletePopUp();
};
winListener.complete = function(evt_obj:Object) {
my_win.setSize(my_win.content._width, my_win.content._height + 25);
}
my_win.addEventListener("click", winListener);
my_win.addEventListener("complete", winListener);
stop();

```

–when I try to preview this movie it gives me this actionscript error:

```auto
**Error** Scene=Scene 1, layer=Layer 1, frame=1:Line 11: Type mismatch.
var my_win:MovieClip = PopUpManager.createPopUp(this, Window, true, {closeButton:true, contentPath:"http://www.flash-mx.com/images/image1.jpg"});

```

–Any ideas why I get this error? If not, please try this example yourself (only takes a minute) and tell me if it actually works.
