Flash :: Closing Browser After Opening New Window

Closing Window When Audio Is Done And Opening New Browser..
I am using Flash MX. I have a 35 second piece of Audio that I imported into Flash and there is an Image there as well. The Flash is launching once the HTML page opens...it plays the audio. When the audio ends, I want the window to close and open up a new page. Can someone tell me how to do this?

I have the audio on one layer, the image on one layer and they are both in Frame 1 on seperate layers. Can anyone help?

Thanks!

[F8] Opening/Closing Window
Thank you for your interest in this thread.

I need to know what action script should I use for a button to close an existing window that it is in and open a new window.

Basically, when I click on the button, the page closes, then a new URL window opens.

Thanks!

Opening And Closing A New Window Locally
Working on the web, I have opened a new window and closed it many times... getURL and javascript:window.close();...

However, now I am running a movie locally and they want a button to open a new window, and for the new window to have a close button. Both the getURL and javascript:window.close(); commands got to the browser.

How do I do this locally?

Thanks.

Opening & Closing Window Boxes Within Flash
Hi all

Im not too sure my Subject title really explained what I need to do but im gonna give it a go and hope that someone just pops by and has a look.

I have a flash movie of a car with some round circle buttons on some parts of the car that when clicked shows particular parts of the car in close-up.

Before I just used a roll over button and made a box appear when I the mouse rolled over but the of course it just disappeared when people came off the button.

What I would like now is that when the button it rolled over small box comes up within the movie and juststays there until you click the cross at the side of the box and then it just disappears and everything is teh same underneath. Kinda like a browser window but not if you get me.

Im not sure how to do this but it would be great to know how.

I hope you guys can help me, im learning all the tme with this.

Closing Browser Window
I have a pretty easy question i hope.

I'm trying to make a simple flash application that will open and close the browser window.

To open a URL is easy like

getURL ("http://www.ect");

but how do I close it, say in frame 30?

basically what this application will do is constantly open and close the same URL..that's it

any thoughts on how I can acheive this??

thanks in advance Steve

When Closing A Browser Window .....
Just a thought, but when a user closes the browser, is it possible to display a "thankyou".swf on a timer that will close the browser in a certain amount of time (5 secs).
I've got the timer and the image I want displayed, but havn't a clue about closing the browser.
Also do you think it's a waste of time to do this as it would be infuriating to the user.

Cheers for your time,

Closing The Browser Window
How can I have a flash button close the browser window?

I created a flash cd rom with an exit button. Now the client is using this on their intranet site and the fscommand("quit") function no longer works. So I want to change the actionscript to close the browser window.

Couldn't they create an invisible button in html or javascript that lies over the flash file that closes their browser window?

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Can any body tell me plz that, if i want to close a browser window on a specific date. I means that if some one tries to visit the site on which the close brower window script is written, then the browser window should close if it matches the specific date, and should not show the site.

Detect Closing Browser Window
Hi all,
the problem is this one: i want my flash movie capturing browser windows client closing, to call an actionscript function that is calling a javascript function in the HTML page.
Is this possible?
Or the same problem, but in another way:
I think that once browser is closing its own window, tells flash movie to stop, and then unload it.
Is it possible for Flash to detect that "STOP"?

I need it for AICC.
Really urgent and important.

Thanks a lot.
Bye

Closing A Main Browser Window
I'm loading (onload) .swf files into an html shell. The shell holds my Flash exported SWF file, which is embedded in the html file, so, I have buttons on the top of the html page for resources, etc. I also have a link to EXIT. I'm trying to figure out how to close this main browser window using a button action. Is this close:

Header of HTML shell

<head>

<script language="javascript">
<function closewindow()

if(window.parent!=window){
window.close = function() { window.parent.close(); }}

</SCRIPT>

</head>

BUTTON in Flash:

on (release) {
getURL ("javascript:javascript:closewindow();");
}

Sound Loop Continues After Closing Browser Window

Detect When Flash File Ends By Closing Browser Window
Okay, this one was hard to explain in the title.

What I want to do is know when a user hits another web address or closes the browser window so that I can write out the session ended information to a database. Is this possible? I write to the database when the swf file is started, and can write to it if I hit an end button within the swf file, but my concern is - what if someone doesn't hit the end button and just closes the browser. Can that be captured from flash or some other script?

Thanks for any help.

Help W/ Opening New Browser Window
Heres my problem...*sigh*

I have a index.htm page, which loads a small unseen swf movie called redirflash.swf (loacated at http://fromthegrave.lunarpages.com/cat-bat/cynic/). This is just to redirect to the opening animation which I needed to use this script in (the file is flashindex.htm):

getURL("javascript:window.open('http://fromthegrave.lunarpages.com/cat-bat/cynic/flashindex.htm','CynicStudios','toolbar=no,locatio n=no,directories=no,status=no,menubar=no,scrollbar s=no,resizable=no,width=750,height=550,left=250,to p=250');");

Whats happening is...then the javascript goes off, it does load the flashindex.htm that I want it, but the other browser behind it, (which was redirflash) opens a white window. I want that page to go to another page and sit. Nothing more will be done with that window. Anyone got any ideas?

Much appriciated.

Opening New Browser Window
I am creating a website and from the enter button on the index page am attempting to open a new browser window.

The code I have in flash is on (release)
{getURL("javascript:window.open('lojko_website.htm l','t','width=800,height=600,screenX=200,screenY=2 00,left=200,top=200,menubar=no,scrollbars=no,resiz eable=no,copyhistory=yes,status=yes')");
}

the problem that I am encountering is that the index page will not keep it's original image. When I click on the enter button, the appropriate page will open, however the index page changes to a blank page with just the word [object} appearing, and the code above appears as the URL.

Any thoughts on what I am doing wrong?

Thanks

Opening A New Browser Window
Is there a way a button could trigger a new browser window to pop up and go to a new URL??

Even though this isn't what I want, I have managed to make the browser window of my movie to an address using this script on a button:

on (release) {getURL("http://www.google.co.uk/");

}

Could this script be adapted to open a new window then go to url?

Cheers
