Open New Window With Actionscript
I made my portfolio site in flash using a shell and loading pages as movies, then I put the shell into dreamweaver. When you click on a thumbnail it made it a button so onrealease in gets URL of the high res image which is saved as an html file on my site. The problem is when you try to go back to the portfolio section from the high res image, you click back in the browser, and you have to start back from the home page which has to load again. Is there a way to open the high res image in a seperate window, I know there is by putting parent, or something like that, but can that be put in the actionscript somehow? How can i get the high res image to come up in a seperate window? If anyone can help me I would really be greatful, thanks so much.

Actionscript To Open New Window
Hi
Im new to actionscripting and need some direction where to go(politely please...)
I have made a projector file for a business presentation. The contact details can only be accessed if they are online.
Usually i use javscript to open a centered window movie from my flash form.
Questions:
Can i open a predetermined size flash form (swf) in a centered new window from the projector (ie not embedded within a html page)?
Can actionscripting do this or is that only javascripting can (ie code within the head tags of an html page?
Any assistance would reduce my headache, thanks in advanced

Open New URL's In New Browser Window Using Actionscript 3.0
My question is: "How can I open a new browser window"
The "_parent" - "_self" and "_blank" doesn't work.
The following example shows how you can open new browser windows from Flash Player using the navigateToURL() method in ActionScript 3.0
controls_mc.link1_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, link1);
function link1(Event:MouseEvent):void {
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://www.adobe.com"));
It opens a new browser site outside my homepage and that's not what I want.
I want it to open inside my homepage!
I hope there is someone who can help me with this problem! ???
Thanks for your help !
Javascript Window.open In Actionscript Part 2
I posted yesterday on using the standard javascript open window function inside a flash document/swf. I attached the following to a button in my flash file:
on (release) {
getURL("javascript:window.open('mypage.htm','MyPag e','toolbar=no,location=no,status=no,menubar=no,sc rollbars=no,resizable=no,width=300,height=250')");
}
This works great in Internet Explorer, but in Netscape 4.x no window pops up. Even stranger behavior occurs in Netscape 6 as the window pops up fine, but then the html window my flash file is sitting in refreshes to a blank white page with the words, "[object Window]" and the location shows my javascript code.
I know, I know, Netscape sucks, but obviously I would like this to work. Anyone know what's wrong, or have a better way of handling this so that it will do the job in both browsers?
Thanks,

Flash CS3 Seams Sluggish With Text And If Actionscript Window Open
I have a movie clip on the stage that has a large text box inside with 18-20pt font, 3-4 paragraphs of text. When I try to scrub the timeline, the playhead on the timeline does not keep up with my mouse... it lags way behind. It's like the Flash CS3 software starts to freeze or hang. And the text in the final swf movie doesn't animate on the timeline.
What I did finally discover is that if I hide (turn off visiblity) the layer on the timeline that has the text movie clip, voila! I can now smoothly scrub the timeline. What gives??? I think others have had similar issues with the CS3 actionscript panel.
My pc specs are as follows... (I think it should be beefy enough to handle this simple text animation).

Hi I need some help.
I'm trying to load a new html file that contains a movie but I like to specify to what frame to proceed in that movie I try to write this in actionscript I think it is easier to understand.
// I have 2 html files contact.html and home.html
// And I have one swf file named home.swf with 2 scenes named "home" and "contact"
// The home.html and the contact.html both contain the same home.swf movie
// currently I'm in home.html I like to getURL("../main/contact.html")
that loads the contact.html and the contact.html contains the home.swf but I like to proceed to the gotoAndStop("Scene",1) or gotoAndStop("contact",1)
I hope that was clear enough if you may know the answer please email me I have suffered a lot on this but I just couldn't come up with the answer.

Issue Using Window.open For A New Window...
this one is interesting...
i have a page called main.html which contains main.swf and the javascript function to open a new browser window... no problem there.
however, when I go to my frameset (index.html) which contains main.html.... and try go open a new window from the main.swf flash piece... i get a javascript error. what is going on with the frameset that is causing the open new window to fail?
try it out.
go to my site:
http://www.menuengine.com (index.html)
>> click on Arctic Thunder in the menu, then click on Character Work.
now go to http://www.menuengine.com/main.html and try the same thing... it works here.
the only difference is that you first tried it from a frameset housing main.html
any clue?
here's the code that's in main.html
<script LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
function popupwindow(){
window.open("The file that you want to pop up here","","height=350,width=500,menubar=0,resizable =0,scrollbars=0,status=0,titlebar=0,toolbar=0,left =0,top=0")
}
</script>

Greetings,
I have created a button in Flash. I've assigned the "Get URL" action to it OnClick to open a new window which grabs an HTML page that has a QuickTime movie embedded. What I would like to happen is when the user clicks the button, the window that opens would be a specific size that is slightly larger than the QT movie. How do I do that?
Since I have got your attention, I have one more question—Dreamweaver related. Again, I have a button. I inserted a "rollover" button (from the tool pallette) into a layer. I've added the Behavior to open another window at a specific size. The problem is, the behavior options only allow this to happen OnMouseOver. I want it to happen OnClick. Do I need to acquire additonal Behaviors? Got any clues? I'd like to do this action without having to open the HTML and futz with the code but if I have to well...ok.
Thanks
Open Up A Window Again...plz Help Me
Hi, I have recently added a window with scrollable text in it, on my site that Im working on. I got it from a tutorial here on Flash Kit. What the tutorial explained was how to create a window with scrollable text, also with close and minimize buttons. What the tutorial did not explain was how to open the window again if someone wanted to!!That's what I really need to know now. Please can someone help?
PS: I have made the button to open the window, but dont know what actions to give it.
PSS: I'm not talking about a browser window, Im talking about re-opening a flash window.
Much Appreciation,
