Create A Centered POP UP Window From Flash
Hi!
I am working with a website in Flash MX 2004. I want to have a centered POP UP window when someone clicks on a menu button. I have tried out some actionscript that I found here. It works well, when it's in the first frame of my timeline. The site I work with the menu is a bit inside the timeline. Now when someone clicks on the button a window pops up. But it's not in the correct size that I wrote in the script. It's much bigger. Why is that? How can I have a menu button working with a pop up window that shows an external html file?

Please help me out! Thanks!

Html Sized Pop-up Window From Flash Button
In my portfolio website, I would like thumbnails that when clicked go to an html pop up window for a larger view of the thumbnail. I'd like that html window sized without an address bar,bookmark bar, or navigation bar. All I want is my enlarged images contained within a sized box, centered on the screen.

HELP! What action do I put on the button? Do I put javascript in a geturl?

see www.thatartisticfriend.com to see what I mean. Click on Fao Schwarz thumbnail for example.

Thanks

Simple Pop Up Html Window - Sized HELP
Hi guys,
I've been looking through the posts but just can't solve this simple question - it's 2 years since I've been in Flash and my memory is dying!

I'm linking from a button in index.swf - opening mainpage.html in a new window.
I have the link all working, my question is that I want the page to open in a new window - I have done this using _blank; however I want the windows to appear as a fixed size, #over# the original window. A classic popup window if you will - NOT a new page in the browser.

So when you click the button in the browser, the new page appears as a popup window, smaller and hovering over the original.

Simple question - no doubt a simple answer - PLEASE HELP!

Loading JPEG Images In HTML With The Correct Sized Window
I've searched through this forum without success, so I'd thought I'd ask. I have 8 images scrolling through a masked area so only 3 or 4 can be seen. If you click on an image it opens a _blank window with the image in it (Internet explorer).

My question is how do I control the size of this window. I can do it normally in Dreamweaver, but seem unable to do it in Flash MX.

I've seen some where you can do it from a button but not form a .txt file imported in a text box. Is there anyone who can help. BTW, this is my first time so THE NEWBE most likely screwed this up or isn't looking in the right places so please send me in the right direction.

Problem With Flash Opening Link Into Blank Sized Window
Hey everyone

I'm trying to rebuild my website using .swf's and placing them into dreamweaver.

I have a button in flash that i would like to open a page into a new browser window that is a fixed size. I followed the instructions on kirupa, and have gotten it to work on one page. This page everything starts on frame 1.

On another page i have a button that does not appear until the second frame(another button must be pushed for the button to appear on the stage)

once the button appears I click it, and nothing happens!

could this be because it is on a frame other than the first? Also, I place all of the extra actions that are not placed on a specific button on frame one. could this be an issue?

any help is greatly appreciated i'm beginning to pull out my beautiful hair.

cheers

[Flash 8] Centered Pop-Up Window
I had great success with the tutorial on this site about Centered Pop-Up Windows

Now my question is how do I get this to work when my button is in a swf that is being loaded into an html page. Basically the button swf is on the server but there is no html document for it on the server. Where do I put the javascript that goes above the body tag? Do I put it in the html document that the button swf is being externally loaded into??

Hope this question made sense. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanx

How Do I Create Transparent Html Window With AS3
Hi,

Bin searching everywhere on how to do do this with no results!??

Truly Centered Non-resizable Swf In A Browser Window (flash 5)
I found a page that launches a full-screen browser window with a SWF in it. This SWF is non-resizable, and it is centered inside a browser window in such a manner, that both bottom AND TOP get cut off if the screen size is smaller than that of a flash file.

Usually an embedded SWF would be tied to top left corner of the browser window in case of a smaller screen. In other words, top edge and left edge of a SWF file would always start at 0, 0 if the screen is too small.

Not in this case though. Check it out at designchapel.com : http://www.designchapel.com/

Java script on the index page launches the full-screen browser window. But what makes the movie inside that window perfectly centered, even on a smaller (i.e. 800x600) screen, letting its BOTH bottom AND TOP edges be clipped? Is there some flash code for it? I couldn't find anything in the html code.

Thanks

Keeping A Flash Movie Centered In A HTML Page?
First of all, Hello everyone!

I know this probably sounds silly, but how does one do to have a flash movie that spans the browser window size (both height and width) so that i have the whole browser window usable as a flash movie in order to allow the visitors to open up several popUps and move them around.

I have tried to do this by making the movie as big as the screen resolution i'm working at, but when the window is resized it all gets off centered.

I've seen sites where the window can be resized and the flash movie seems to adapt its size (not by resizing) by "managing the transparent" area and keeing the "important stuff" centered?

Well i hope u understand what i mean...

Thnx in advance.

P.S. - I got tricked into doing a website in flash without knowing how to do more that have a circle move around... :'(

Need To Know How To Open Links In Sized Window

Opening A Browser Sized Window?
I have a flash movie where moving the mouse over a navbar pans across a mountain scene, using a sort of parralax effect to give the impression of depth. When you then click the button, it zooms in at that location.

What I want to then do, is have an ever so slightly transparent window open, to fit to just under the full size of the player window. I want to be able to put HTML into this window, but flash stuff would be cool.

Im thinking its going to be using the window document object on a new layer and level, but I'm not really sure where to start?

Any help at all would be much appreciated

Display Image In Sized Window
You've all seen this (http://www.wskartists.com/index_flash.html).

This is obviously done with scripting as opposed to manual animation, but how. I don't even know where to start.

Ideally, I want a series of thumbnails, when clicked, to open into a sized movieclip/window, with tight display animation (the kind achieved by scripting and not manual animation).

Hope this makes sense. If I find more examples, I'll post.

Point Blank: Full Screen Browser Window, With A Flash File Centered Both Horizontall
Here is the deal.

I would like to create a flash popup that creates a browser window that goes fullscreen. Not the fullscreen that takes over the whole screen, and you need to esc to get out. But fullscreen so in a window that has no toolbars, search bar, etc.

That's the first challenge. Within that window, I have a flash file that is 1100 x 700. I would like to have that swf centered both vertically and horizontally. I would also like to have the background of that file extend to all sides....so that I can change the color of the background. To accomplish this I used this link and modified the file that came with it...

http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/fullscreen.htm

The problems that i have run into are the following... I thought I had it working with this...

http://www.leereedy.com/test/splash.html

It was working on Internet explorer....automatically launching a full screen pop up. But it doesn't even work on safari or firefox. I was using a code that I got from some pop up java code generator.

Is there a way to do what I'm trying to do? I've been wrestling with this for so long. I want it to just go away. If you could impart your wisdom on me, and or post an fla, or html file....that would be amazing.

Thanks.

Sized Browser Window From Dynamic Code
I've been searching through some of the Javascript window questions on the forum for a while but I can't get anything to work for my specific application. I want my button to open up a seperate window sized 800x800 with no scrolling, resizing or menu bar at the top--just a plain window-- but I have the button dynamically coded and I'm not sure how I would apply a link like this:
getURL("PORTFOLIO/"+_parent.cursec+"/"+_parent.curcli+"/"+_parent.cursel+"big.jpg", "_blank");
to what I've already seen. Can anyone help me out? Keep in mind I'm almost completely javascript illiterate, thanks...

How To Open Dynamic, Encoded URL In Sized Window
Hi all,

This is my first post. I started a new job that has me doing a lot of Flash. I am using CS3. I must admit that I am not much of a programmer, but I have some exposure to Actionscript, Javascript, and little VB.

Using this forum and Google searches I have figured out how to pass an URL into my flash movie and open it up in a new window.

I have also figured out how to encode the URL and decode it in Flash and open that in a new window. I have also figured out how to open a new specific sized window using javascript within the getURL().

I just can't figure out how to put it all together:
- Pass encoded dynamic URL into flash
- Decode URL
- Add the decoded URL into the javascript open window

Here is the code I have messed with thusfar:

Decodes and locates URL passed to flash using Flashvars called "url":

Code:
on(release){
getURL(unescape(_root['url']), "_blank");
}

Creates sized Javascript popup, (code generated by, The Flash-DB):

Code:
on (release) {
getURL ("javascript:NewWindow=window.open('http://www.google.com','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);");
}

How can I change "http://www.google.com" in the Javascript popup to the unescaped "_root['url']"? I have tried a few different things but they arent working. I am either getting Actionscript errors when I test or Javascript errors when in the HTML page.

Thanks, in advance, for the help.
