Email Hyerlink Without Opening Browser (CDROM App)
I have an email hyperlink on a CDROM app that I have created.
I am basically using the following:
getURL(vURL, "_blank");
Problem is that it is opening a browser window as well as the email application. Anyone suggest a way to prevent this browser window opening.
I would consider using a third party app but this CDROM unfortunately has to work on Windows 95 which none of the 3rd party apps do as far as I am aware.
Many thanks

[F8] Opening A Local Folder With Flash On CDROM
Greetings Everyone,
I was handed a project today where I need to make a cross platform (windows/OSX) CD ROM using a Flash 8 interface. All that happens is when the user clicks on a button in flash it opens up a folder on the CD ROM.
I'm guessing I'll be using the "fscommand" however my searches show me how to execute .exe files but I couldn't find anything on opening folders. Any advice?
Thank you!

Fscommand, Browser And A CDROM
I need to run a file (index.html) on a CD (inside an interactive flash piece) in Internet Explorer. Basically, the user clicks on a button and the file launches in IE.
Do I use fscommand? How do I send a parameter with it saying which file to open?
Is there another way to make flash open a particular browser, instead of the default one (which might be firefox, which I've tested and won't work)?

Opening Email Client
Hi everybody,
Please forgive me for asking such a simple (and probably stupid) question. I have tried the manual and also "help" but I can't find the answer. (I am probably using the wrong terminology)
What AS do I need to add to my button to have it open the users email client (such as "Outlook") and add my email to the "To" box.
I'm using Flash 5 by the way.
Thanks in advance. 8^)

HELP Opening Swf In Exe Browser?
Hi. I am creating an enhanced CD which I have done before. However, I have my project all completed and when I run the .exe file it comes up 640x480 and in the center of my screen and it looks great, BUT my problem is that when I click on one of the buttons to open up a new link (an swf file), it opens up in a normal windows browser. How do I enable it to open the swf in a new browser BUT be 640x480 and without the windows toolbar. I just want the windows to all be the same size and look the same as the projector file. I'm not sure if I add code to the button link itself or would I have to add it to the swf I am trying to open?? Also, how do I make sure that the new window stays on top of the old windows?? Thanks so so much for your help. I really appreciate it...

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.

Currently, I have an image on my site's main page that works as a link to open a new browser window for my flash piece. Using the behaviors window (onclick="MM_openBrWindow) in Dreamweaver the window opens by default in the upper left-hand corner of the screen. Anyone know how I can control where the browser window I open up appears? Thanks in advance if you can help.

Run PHP Script Without Opening A Browser
I have a program that sends some variables to a php file like this:
file.php?var1=something&var2=somethingelse
Then the php file opens up in an external browser and saves the variables down to a txt file.
The swf file switches to another swf file.
My problem is that it looks like **** when a browser opens with nothing in it. Another problem is that the variables are kinda secret (Its a highscore) so i would like to run the php-script without letting the user see any browser window open.
DOes anyone have a suggestion what I could do?

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

Opening A .swf In FlashPlayer From A Browser
I have an online portfolio with an accompanying HTML site. I would like to put this site and portfolio on CD ROM.
Now, whereas on the online version you download examples of my work, on the CD version this obviously wont be necessary. Instead, I would each piece to launch in FlashPlayer so the work can run fullscreen.
Quick question/query for anyone out there with an answer.
Is it possible to have a clickable link in HTML that launches a swf in FlashFlayer (application), as opposed to embedding the swf within an HTML document?
Many thanks.

AIR Opening Link In Browser
Hi,
The issue I'm having is pretty simple. I'm opening a URL from my AIR application using the following code:
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://" + url), "_blank");
I'm using Firefox 3 on Windows Vista, and when the opener is called, it opens a new tab in the browser, but the browser doesn't get focused. So if Firefox is minimized when that line is called, you don't even really know the URL was opened. It only happens sometimes. I think it happens when Firefox looses focus without getting specifically minimized, if that makes sense.
My question is, how can I make it so Firefox gets maximized or focused when the URL is opened by the AIR application? This seems like only a problem with Firefox, or at least from my tests it seems that way.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Regards,
~David

Opening A Pdf In A Browser With A Projector
this is the last question regarding this stupid CD (i hope). Thank you to all who helped me solve the email issue, the mailto command worked perfectly.
New issue is that i have 3 pdf's that have to open from within this CD-ROM. It is to be a cross platform CD, so im opening these pdf's from a browser with the getURL command instead of writing applescript & creating *.bat files to use with the fscommand in order to get Acrobat to open.
So far so good except my good friend firefox doesnt open these pdf's unless it's already open. if ff is open they open in a new tab. if ff is closed and the app has to open the browser, ff comes up with a blank screen (no errors, no tabs, just a plain white screen)
the coding on the buttons is pretty simple: (yes, i know, its not best practice but i'm trying to keep this as quick & easy as possible as it is a component of a larger entity)
Code:
on (release) {
gotoAndPlay("pdf");
getURL("business_plan.pdf", "_blank");
}
i defaulted every browser and firefox is the only one i have this issue with.

Opening A New Browser Window With Button
I am having trouble opening a new browser window of controled size containing a separate flash movie using a button in flash.
i've downloaded examples that give me everything but what I put for the url (using the get URL action). I don't know if i just put my site URL or if i need some other reference...I can't get it to work .
Where do I put the movie that i want to appear in the new browser and do i have to put it in a separate dreamweaver document? Or can I just call on an SWF file? I am so confused.
