Loading .swf In New Window, Etc.
Okay. Here's my problem. I have a CD with my portfolio on it. Some files are .swf files, some are webpages (in folders).
I want to open the webpage files (/70s/index.html) in a new window but I don't know how to do it since it's in a folder named 70s, which it has to be, otherwise I have 4 index files (corresponding to the 4 folders with websites in them).
Is this making sense?
I'm using Flash 8.
Thanks.

Loading External SWF's Into A New Flash Window Instead Of A Browser Window?
I have this flash presentation where I have buttons when clicked on, a (_blank) browser window pops-up and begins playing external SWF's.
The problem is that, with windows XP, every time I click the button(s) to have the browser window pop-up, to play my externals, the damn 'virus protection notification' thing pops-up first, asking me if this content is allowed. Is there a way to turn this off? My client does not want to have to "allow" the browser to play the external SWF's everytime. I've tried everything but no luck.
Better yet, is there a way to have the external SWF's pop-up in a totally new flash window, on top of the main (presentation) window? I don't want the external SWF's playing in the same window, but rather show in a new window entirely. Can anyone help me? This project is past-due and it needs to go out today. I'll attach the current scripting I'm using so far, if it helps. Thanks so much!
bottingsAd_mc.onRelease = function() {
getURL("exampleAds/bottingsports2_001.swf", "_blank");

Loading In New Projector Window Not Browser Window
I'm designing a portfolio site and Im sending it out as a projector. Is there a way that I can have images load in a new projector window, and not the default browser. My only succes so far is using the getURL, but this opens the image in a browser or in the same window, and I just want to open a new window with the projector, not an internet browser. PLEASE HELP, I need to get a job with this site.
Popup Window Loading Extra "object" Window For No Reason...
hey all. Following this thread on the subject of popup windows...
http://www.flashkit.com/board/showth...hreadid=397960
Using the code from the Flash-db.com popup window page, I'm getting a second window opening up on top of the window that is supposed to load. The second window contains nothing except the word "object".
sample of code
on (release) {
getURL("javascript:NewWindow=window.open('http://hybrid.concordia.ca/~4919580/dfar351/guineapig/photo/26.html','newWin','width=640,height=520,left=0,top =0,toolbar=No,location=No,scrollbars=No,status=No, resizable=No,fullscreen=No'); void(0);");
}
I'm wondering if it has to do with possibly my personal browser specific settings, or if anyone else gets the extra window as well? No one in the thread mentioned anything about it, but it's driving me nuts... help is greatly appreciated.

Loading In A New Window
Hello all,
Quick question, I have an HTML page created in Dreamweaver as the splash page to enter my site.
The Enter text is linked to the start.swf file and I have selected the target as _blank
Was I correct in selecting _blank. I want the Flash site to load on it's own page. Seems to be fine.
My Problem is, I want to get rid of the IE task bar, and everything else onto of the page, just leaving the page to fit the flash movie.
This is what I've done? for the Enter link...
<a href="fla/maverik3test.swf" target="_blank" width="800" height="500" class="headwhite">ENTER
TEST FLASH</a>
Thanks for reading, hope you might be able to help,

Loading An SWF Into A Window
Hey all,
I need some help on something. I need to have a flash file, that can load other swf's into windows and work with them. E.G.: I have a small window. You specify an swf. It pops up a window, sized to fit the swf you chose, and loads in into that window. You can then take and send variables to and from the loaded movie.
I think you might do this by:
Making a window that is initially hidden, with a width of 1 x 1 pixels, with a movie clip placed in the middle. You type in a name or URL or whatever, and the program shows the window, loads the swf into the movie clip, and sets the x and y properties of the window to the x and y of the movieclip it just loaded the external swf into.
I know how to send and get variables, how to load an swf into a movie clip, and all that, but not how to make a popup window, or set it's x and y values to the value of something inside it. Any ideas? If anyone could just tell me how to make a popup window, that would be great too.
Thanks,

Pop-up Window Or Loading .swf?
Hi,
I have lots of thumb nail sized images and try to Zoom-in the images while clicking the ZOOM-IN buttons.
1) First, I made button symbols for zoom-in, and
on (release) {
loadMovieNum("external.swf", 1);
}
used this AS. But this AS need the "unloadMovieNum" for unloading. If not, this external.swf is overlapped with others.
2) so, I tried the other AS.
var myMCL: MovieClipLoader=new MovieClipLoader();
myMCL.loadClip("external.swf", "container");
But, I'm not quite sure where to put "container"- this empty MovieClip when I click the zoom-in button.
Do you have other AS or suggestion to make pop-up window when I click zoom-in button to make zoom-in image?
Thanks in advance!!
Loading A Url In A New Window

Loading An New Window
Hey everyone,
I have a splash page the when clicked loads an extrenal HTML page with some flash in it. THe page loads fine with the code I have, but since there are a top and bottom frame in the page, I cannot get rid of the scrollbars or make adjustments with the code in the flash file. I think the code is not communication with the bottom frame of the page. IT's just recognizing the page as a whole.
Any way around that?
THanks

Movie Not Loading Where I Want It To In The Window
Hello,
I am a bit stumped here. I have created a new site that is supposed to load in its own window. I have placed an "enter" button on the splash page that launches a new window that is the same size as my movie. When my movie loads into the new window, it crops a small amount off the right and bottom and has extra space on the top and left. Has anyone encounterd this before? Any ideas?
Here is my code:
for the "enter" button:
on (release) {
getURL("javascriptpenNewWindow('qteweb.html','qt eweb','550','775','toolbar=no,scrollbars=no') ");
}
and for the movie i just use the Flash exported .html file.
Thanks!

Loading Swf In Same Window With Txt File
someone posted these instructions to make a txt file (displayed dynamically in a text field of an swf) load an swf in the same window. However, I can't seem to make it work. Is there something wrong with this code?
Can someone help?
The original person doesn't seem available to answer the question:
HERE IS THEIR POST:
in the main time line:
_global.laden = function(daten){
parameter = daten.split("|");
loadMovieNum(parameter[0]; parameter[1]);}
in the text file you devide the string like
<a href="asfunction:laden,blabla.swf|1>
you load the file blabla.swf to level 1
Loading A Swf. In A New Window With Html
Hi,
I'm trying to make an external swf. load in a new window when a button is pressed in an original swf. I've read a couple of tutorials on this, but they all seem to assume I am publishing my swf. in a html file. Since I am not putting my project online, I don't want to publish it in html, but just want all the files to be viewed with flash player. Is there a way of making a swf. open in a new window without publishing anything?
I hope that makes sense.
Thanks in advance.

How Can I View An Swf In Loading Window
In my website you click on the available button on the main screen - which takes you to the available page - in this available page is another menu - this time the products are listed as the buttons (when you click the buttons they take you to the product) How can I make the first product show automatically when the viewer clicks on the available button? at the moment the viewer clicks and they get the product menu (rest of the page is blank) then they click on the product which brings the images up. Any help appreciated.
basically how do I get the first product details to load automatically when the available button is clicked in my main site?

Loading A New Movie In A New Window
I am sure that the answer to this is somewhere in this forum, but I may not be using the right search words. I am creating a Demo CD for my company using Flash MX. I am familiar with loading movies using various levels. I am trying to code a button to open a new Window playing my flash movie. I have built a flash movie that is approximately 400 x 400 in size. My main movie is 800 X 600 an has a button that when pressed should open this new movie (the 400x400 one) front and center in the user monitor.
Some posts and tutorials have addressed this question specifically, but as it pertains to the web. I am building this for a cdrom and not the web. Can anyone tell me which method will work for this.
LoadMovie?
LoadURL?
FSCommand?
Or none of the above?
Thanks in advance.

Loading Movie To Fit The Window
I have 3 swf movies. Let's say A,B,C. "A" has 2 buttons which load B or C to the bottom part of "A"'s window (one at a time). I know when loading a swf with a html file, it cal load as fit to window. But can I load B or C in the above exampel to the bottom window as "fit to window".
I mean if the screen res. get different, I want always the bottom loading movies to be fit to windows.
(B & C will load one at a time on to the bottom part within the movie A)
Loading An External .txt Into A Scrolling Window
I am trying to make a news section that my client can update with a .txt file. I have gone through the tutorial for scrolling (which is great) and it uses a .txt, but uses it to generate .html to place in the actionscripting. The second part of the tutorial says it will load an external file in it, but I couldn't seem to find it (did I overlook something?)
So...
1. I need to have a .txt file load automatically into a scrolling window without access the .fla. Is that possible?
2. I couldn't figure out how to have a link in the scrolling text. I checked the html option for the dynamic text, but...
I have also tried using a DHTML scroller, but it doesn't seem to have a way to load a .txt file, either. I am a novice when it comes to this programming stuff, if you haven't gathered! Thanks.
Loading A Hidden Variable Into A Pop Up Window
I'm creating a flash games site where only registered users can get their scores on the leaderboards. I would prefer to launch a pop up window for each of my games when the users play them, rather than loading the swf into the main movie, but the username variable will need to be sent to the game. How can I send this variable to my pop up window without using the game.html?username=Joe%20Bloggs method?

Closing A Fullscreen Window And Loading Into A New One?
O.K,
On the preloader to my fullflash site I have a function button which will skip an intro and a button to take the viewer to an alternate html site...
My problem is on the initial site being served, I have it load into a fullscreen window which is opened by javascript. when the site is loaded I have a quit button which then closes the fullscreen window and returns the browser to nmormal operation,
My real problem is this....when the preloader is working and when you press the html button the html site loads into another window ontop of the fullscreen loading flash site....ahhhh...I use the get url _blank function on the button....see if I open the site in the fullscreen window it looks bad..
I need to do this..
1) close the exsisting fullscreen window
2) load the alternate html site in a regular window
3) I need it to work from the html button in the flash preloader....
ideas? I tried using a javascript window closer and a meta refresh tag todo this...It dosnt work
automation is what I need thankyou..
