Flash :: Problem With Pop-up Windows

Problem In Running A Flash MX-2004 Application On Windows 98 Adn Windows NT.
Hi all
I have this problem ......here it goes.....
Actually I developed a Flash MX-2004 application which has to run on both mac and windows platforms.
This application does the funciton of a dictionary and has 46 xml files and close to 13000 sound files.
This application runs fine on most Windows platform, however it doesnt work on Windows 98 and Windows NT where though the intro animation comes & the home screen loads....the application part of the program doesnt load.

Why is this so??? I am totally clueless...please help....
Do I have to make the intro and exit animations as separate swf files adn call them????
Please help....

Flash Popup Adverts/windows That Aren't Windows
Hi there

Just wondering if anyone knows any links to tutorials to make those flash adverts you find on websites? They are actual popup windows but flash boxes that appear above a webpage.

I think they use div layers as well as some flash? But im not sure where to find a tutorial!

For an example visit:

http://www.channel4.com/4car/news/index.jsp

(you might need to click on several pages down the left to get one to appear)

Any help on this would be a great help.

Thanks

How To Create 'Windows' Windows With Flash?
I'd like to create a windows system like the one we use on windows. This is what i really like:
Yo have some buttons. When u click on any of 'em a popup window opens (inside could be text, image or movieclips or all of 'em). Last window it opens always shows up on top and if u select one that it's behind this comes automaticly to the top. I'd love too if u could minimize 'em and also if eacho one opens into a new swf.
There is a example of what I want here:
http://senocular.com/flash/source.php?id=0.49
But in that example everything is in the same swf, and as I said some lines before I want each window to open into another swf.

...........hope u can help me. Thanks!

Windows Emulator.... Having Trouble With Minimizing The "windows".
I'm creating a website that will behave kinda' like Windows. I have a basic menu that when you click on an option, a window will open up. You can drag the windows and close them. However, I'm having trouble with the minimizing part.

Lets say that I have 3 "windows" (each is a movie clip) called "win1", "win2", and "win3". Each window has an instance of a minimize button. When you click the button, the window should minimize to the bottom of the screen, and line up in the order that it was minimized in (just like Windows). I figured out how to get them to minimize, but I can't get them to sort themselves correctly.

Lets say that I just minimized all three windows in this order:
win1, win2, win3

Now, if I click on win1 to maximize it, I want win2 and win3 to shift over to the left to take the place of win1. Then, if I minimize win1 again, it should go to the end of the row. Resulting in this order:
win2, win3, win1

Does anyone know of any code that I could make these windows sort themselves when they are minimized and maximized?

Thanks!

Interesting Issue With Flash And Windows - Flash Start With Windows?
Hey guys,
I'm programming a flash application that would run on a user's desktop (using MDM or similar programs to convert to a transparent background EXE).
My client would like to have the users select weather they want to application to start with windows or not. I would like to know how to make my flash application start with Windows without manually adding it (the users won't have to add it to the startup folder themselves). Can flash write to the registry? Can a third party program do it for me? The client wanted to EXE to run without an installation. Thank you very much!

Windows To Mac To Windows Problem
I'm a Mac user and I'm working on a large project with a client who is using Windows XP. My client is creating some Flash content in Windows and then sending the .swfs to me to incorporate into the site.

These files play fine on my computer. I upload them to my web server and my Windows-based clients are able to view them over the web. However, if I email the .swfs back to my client, they won't run on the Windows computer. This is a problem, since it's my client who will ultimately be hosting the site.

There is no problem with .swfs that I publish on my computer and then email to my client.

Any ideas?

Launching Flash Windows From Flash Windows
Please can someone help me.

I am trying to create my own personal portfolio on cd. The main interface is a swf and contains a list of buttons (which are the titles of my work). When these buttons are pressed I want to launch a new flash window ontop of the existing one containing the piece of work.

I have looked at javascript popup windows using dreamweaver but have had no luck. I don't know whether this is because you have to use http's or that im thick and have no knowledge of javascript.

If anyone can help me I would greatly appreciate it. I am using Flash MX if it makes a difference. If the solution is using javascript or html can please explain it to me like a 5 year old because I don't know what im doing.

Cheers

Help In Pop Up Windows
I am looking to find a tutorial in pop up window that come up in a separte window than the main page,.. HELP PLEASE

Pop Up Windows
Hi everybody,
I'm going crazy trying to understand how to make this "simple thing" possible.

I have to open, at button release, a new browser
window, with a certain size, without status bar,
with a certain content and so on.

In Html there's no problem at all there's thousand's of javacode for this.
The problems start with flash:
I can use geturl but How I can directly tell the browser
to open a window with the desired dimensions?
For the moment I can open a blak window with the javacode
that opens a third window (the one I desire).
Not so elegant don't you think?

Thanks in advance

Pop Up Windows
I have been working on updating a website I did about 6 months ago. The client wants to have pop up windows of some of the tattoos that don't show up very well at a max hieght or width of 300 pixels. Doing the pop up is no problem. The problem is that I don't know how to set the size of the pop up window in Flash. I don't want a whole new page to open and have a bunch of empty space around the image. If someone could fill me in on the code for Flash 4, or 5, I would appreciate it. The whole site is in Flash and need to have this functionality in Flash. If you want to check it out, its http://www.alienartstattoo.com

It works best on broadband connections.

Pop-up Windows
Hi. I need a little help with Pop-up windows. Here's my situation - I am running my website from one main html document, loading my movie from there. Each section of my website is simply just loaded and unloaded movie clips. Now... In my portfolio section...I call up a movie into level 2 which basically just displays my thumbnails. I want to set up the links so that the thumbnails will open individual little pop-up windows. Now I have tested the pop-up code on my root movie. It works. But it wont work on the loaded movie which is sitting on level 2. Is that my problem - You can only do it from the root level 0? Is it a publishing problem?

Thanx,
Doug

i have a few links in the gallery section on my flash movie.
on clicking these links i want a new window to open up with the related htm page.
however i want the scripting in such a way that...
a new browser window(say window "x") should open the first time i click on any link(say link "x") on the gallery section.
but when i click on any second link(say link "y") in the gallery section then it should not open a new browser window - rather it should refresh the previous previous browser window "x" to window "y" with the item related to link "y" now being displayed.

I found on another post in here a while ago some code someone said to put into you on(release) stmt. This is what I have :
on (release) {
getURL ("javascript:NewWindow=window.open('http://www.neutechnet.com/images/boatfeature-350.jpg','newWin','width=430,height=330,left=0,top =0,toolbar=No,location=No,scrollbars=No,status=No, resizable=No,fullscreen=No'); NewWindow.focus(); void(0);");
}

This doesnt show the image. The window pops up with this is the address bar:

javascript:NewWindow=window.open('http://www.neutechnet.com/images/boatfeature-350.jpg'

The Java Script Error box does come up and say something about expecting '('... What in the world ??? Does anyone know what this means??? TIA

Pop Up Windows On The Web
Hi everyone

Just made a site which pops up from an index page, using java script window.open("di.html").

This works fine on a mac as the site which pops up has a window resize code on, however it doesnt work on a PC properly, and you have to resize the windows.

Any idea how to make it work on both MAC and PC.

Hi

I don't know what I am doing wrong....
I am trying to make seperatre pop-up windows
to display my different artwork styles.

It was much easier in flash 5

Anyway, from looking around I found this code

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);");
}

an example of the window I want to open is "paints"

So I pasted it to the button and an output box comes up
that says....

Scene=fine art, Layer=links, Frame=1: Line 2: String literal was not properly terminated
getURL ("javascript:NewWindow=window.open('ShowPopup.php' ,'paints','width=400,height=300,left=0,top=0,

Scene=fine art, Layer=links, Frame=1: Line 3: ')' or ',' expected
toolbar=No,location=No,scrollbars=No,status=No,res izable=No,fullscreen=No'); NewWindow.focus();

Scene=fine art, Layer=links, Frame=1: Line 4: ';' expected
void(0);");

and I tryed publishing and testing and nothing happens
What is up?
