Help With Flash Popup


I am creating a website for a business owner who wants a popup window in the flash site displaying the current weather. When he sent me the link to the site that has the information, it came up as html. Any ideas as to how to put this into the flash site or even to make a popup window?

Thanks so much

Popup Window From Flash, Making Everything Load In Just 1 Popup
I have a simple thumbnail gallery in flash.
When a user clicks a thumbnail, I want a popup to appear. I got this far... now for my problem.

Without closing the window that has popped up, if you click another thumbnail, ANOTHER window pops up so I decided to keep the name of the windows the same to prevent this.

Now... when you click on the thumbnails, everything loads in just the one window without popping up a new window everytime you click a thumbnail but... the popup window stays minimized or "behind the main window".....


any help would be appreciated, thank you!

PopUp Window Help - Toggle Control Between Popup And Stage?
How do you toggle control between a popup window and the main timeline?

I have a button that opens up a pop up window. The popup window is going to contain some text instructions. I would like to have the text instructions visible and allow the user to control a movie clip on the stage. Unfortunately, right now once the popup window appears, the user can no longer control the movie clip on the stage until they close the popup. I'm using MX 2004.

Here is the code I have on my button - this creates the popup window (I got this from some other postings):

on (press) {
import mx.containers.Window;
var win = mx.managers.PopUpManager.createPopUp(_root, Window, true);
win.setSize(375, 262);
win.closeButton = true;
win.contentPath = 'text';
win.click = function() {
this.removeEventListener("click", this);
this.deletePopUp();
};
win.addEventListener("click", win);
}

This is my first posting, please let me know if I haven't provided enough information or if I'm going about this completely wrong. My project will not be posted on a website, it needs to be executed off of a CD so that's why I didn't use a getURL().

PopUp Window Gets Blocked By Popup Blockers
Flash CS3
Actionscript 2.0

I have text on the flash website that is being called from an external .txt file. The problem i'm having is that any links called from that .txt file is blocked by popup blockers upon clicking on them.

I have another popup window in the flash itself from on of the navigation buttons, and that one does not get blocked... but the ones in the .txt files do.

However with the design and the content of the flash, I really need that link to be in the .txt file.

Not really sure how i should go about resolving this.

Any and all help will be greatly appreciated, thank you

Create Java Pop Up From Flash Index Site To Standalone Flash Popup
Want bad help to create a javapop up link from index.htm flash movie with a enter button that leads to the other .swf that is a popup window with another .swf. How do I do that.

I am trying to use this code on a flash button to open a sized popup window. Most of the tutorials I found needed to place code in the html page that was published with the main movie .. I can't do it that way because my movie is an exe

This code is getting errors ...

on (release) {
getURL ("javascript:NewWindow=window.open('ShowPopup.php' ,'newWin','width=400,height=300,left=0,top=0,
toolbar=No,location=No,scrollbars=No,status=No,res izable=No,fullscreen=No'); NewWindow.focus();
void(0);");
}

anyone know how this can work?

Thanks in advance =)

Flash PopUp
Hi,

I am using PHP to mail all inpu text boxes from a subscription form to my email.

When you click the submit button it finds the php file, opens it in a new window and display "thank you" in a new page. Because i told the PHP to echo"Thank You". Everything works fine but i would prefer the PHP file to do what it is supposed to do in the background and no new window should open, instead a flash popup window should appear.. Is that possible?

Cheers

Every button is now linked to the same page...

Flash & PHP & Popup Help
Im trying to get the variable from whatever the user typed in on a input text in flash, and passing it to a php which needs to be open on a popup.
So right now I've tried using loadVars with send and sendAndLoad. Also tried using loadVariableNum. If I use any of this function it works but after I open the window I somehow loose my variable, its no being passed to the php. Im opening the window using:
getURL("javascript:var x=window.open('myphp.php','title','width=700,heigh t=700');");

Hopefully someone knows a way to get this to work. Thanks in advance.

I've altered Kirupa's centered popup script a bit and it works fine unless you have a popup blocker because most popup blockers just block the window.open() javascript funciton. Does anyone know a way to force a popup window to open in flash? something like you would do on an HTML link <a target="_blank"> or something of the sort.

Thanks.

Popup With Flash
Hi!

I have a big problem with popups in flash. I have done a flashmovie that will be used in a local network. It will not be at the internet.
The thing is that it works fine at my computer and others computer, both in firefox and explorer. But at my clients computers it donīt work at all (They use IE 6)

The popups will not appear. If I do a popup just in a htmlfile it works fine at my clients, the popup appear.
The problem is when I do the link in flash.In the flashfile there is a button that goes to a htmlpage-popupwindow.
(Use getURL and have the javascript in the htmlfile.)

I donīt understand! Probably my client have stoped javascript that runs from a flashfile.
Is it possible to open a popupwindow from flash without javascript?
Or do it in an another way??

Please help me!!

Popup With Flash
Okay I have done my homework and I know that what I need is to create an action on a button as follows:

Code:
on (release) {
getURL ("javascript:NewWindow=window.open('link.htm','newWin','width=400,height=300,left=0,top=0,
toolbar=No,location=No,scrollbars=No,status=No,resizable=No,fullscreen=No'); NewWindow.focus();
void(0);");
}
However, I cant seem to get this to work and I recieve errors when attempting this.

I have a movie that has no buttons, so I attempted to convert an instance to a button and apply the above action but I dont think Im doing it right. Flash really isnt something I know much about. If anyone is willing to help, I can supply the .fla and .swf

Thanks in advance!

Fullscreen Flash Popup, I'm Begging The Flash Comm
http://ferlan.110mb.com/Flash/newsplash1.html

This is a link some guy put together, which essentially does what I want.

which is....


Have a fullscreen pop up window, that has my flash file centered vertically and horizontally, that works on IE as well as firefox and safari....and doesn't have the 'click to activate' bug.

I have tried everything, and now I am so overwhelmed with javascript solutions, blocks of code, functions, getting close, only to fail....that I am begging the flash community at large to save me, and show me like I was a retarded kindergardener.

a mock up sample would be appreciated.

Shevlin's Popup From Flash 5
I be trying to use Shevlin's smart clip to open a new window from flash and when i test it (and i am publishing first), it keeps displaying the directory containing the swf or html file i try to link to.

1. Can you test on a local machine or do you have to test online?

2. In the 'URL' variable, can you simply enter the swf if it is in the local directory?

Anticipated thanks!

PopUp Menus-Flash 5
I am struggling with the pull-down or pull out menus but think I am just about there. My problem, I think, is knowing how to edit Action Scripts

Here is where I found the action script reference site.
http://www.flashkit.com/tutorials/Ac...21/more3.shtml

On his tutorial the action script is

On (Roll Over)
Go to and Stop ("Shown")
End On

I find no End On action script. So I assume I have to type it in, but cannot remember how to make the lines editable.

Any help would be appreciated.

Popup Windows - Flash 5
On my Flash Project I have about 11 links to be opened in new windows. I have put the following code in Flash:
onRelease {
get URL (javascript : pop(); ");
}
And altered the HTML page with Javascript:
function pop()
window.open...
But...
How can I distinguish in Flash (with Actionscript) and the corresponding HTML page (with Javascript) the opening of the pages? I am using 4 different Javascript functions to do it (pop, newwindow, onClick and openwindow). Currently, with these 4 functions I can only open 4 links, there are still 7 missing :-). Probably I only need one function with variables to do it right... Can anyone help me please?
