Launching Browser Window On Top Of Flash
I've created a combobox to launch .pdf's in an external browser window, but was wondering if there's a way to get the browser to launch "on top" of the Flash movie......As it is now, the movie partially covers the .pdf.
Any ideas?

Launching A Browser Window From A Flash Executable
Hi guys, I've run into a small problem launching a browser window on top of a flash exe.
I recently created a flash cd demo and once placed in the cd drive it launches and scales to fit the screen
fscommand("fullscreen", "true"); now when I launch a browser from a link provided it appears in front of the demo (which is what I want) but problem is if I don't close that previous browser window and try to launch another from the flash demo, it appears "behind" the flash movie.
So bascially I would like to know if there's a code snippet that keeps the browser window always on top.
it's been driving me nutz
please help

Launching Quicktime Mov In New Browser Window From Flash
I'm having trouble with the placement of my quicktime movie (there's borders around it and I don't know why) which i launch from my flash movie (on web) into a new window (unresizable and set dimensions) using this javascript:
on (release) {
gotoAndStop(49);
getURL("javascript:window.open('test.html','win1', 'width=400,height=320, top=15,screeny=15,left=15,screenx=15,toolbar=no,sc rollbars=no, resizable=no,menubar=no,status=no,directories=no,l ocation=no'); void(0);");
}
the problem i have, is that the new browser window which plays my quicktime, leaves a border to the left, bottom, top, and right of my quicktime movie... This is the html code for "test.html" (with qt embedded):
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<meta http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<TITLE>bkuhl</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY bgcolor="#FFFFFF" leftmargin="0" topmargin="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0">
<object classid="clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B"
codebase="http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab"
width="400"
height="320">
<param name="src" value="cd1/fringenew.mov">
<param name="autoplay" value="true">
<param name="controller" value="true">
<embed src="URL"
width="400"
height="320"
autoplay="true"
controller="true"
pluginspace="http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/">
</BODY>
</HTML>
If there is code in the "object" and "embed" parts above which eliminate this strange border around my quicktime, can someone tell me what they are?
The new window is 400x320... my quicktime is 400x320, i don't know why there is a 20 pixel or so margin to left, top, right and bottom
www.gmunk.com (click on broadcast then one of the movies) to see how I want my movie to play.
I don't have a link to the movie, but i could provide one if my explanation makes no sense.
i know this isn't strictly a flash problem, but as I'm trying to launch the window from flash, perhaps there is something in the javascript that'll solve this...
I'm pretty sure the problem is with the html, however.
Thanks, and help appreciated

Getting Rid Of The Top Of The Browser Window When Launching A New Window.
hi there,
I have been having trouble getting a flash site to launch a new broswer window for a html document. It worked fine when opening a new flash window but not html.
Anyway someone on here kindly helped me and sent me this code:
getURL("javascript:NewWindow=window.open('http://www.design8ed.com/digitalspirit/pages/designcs.html','newWin','width=459,height=171,left =0,top=0,toolbar=No,location=No,scrollbars=No,stat us=No,resizable=No,fullscreen=No'); NewWindow.focus(); screen_height = window.screen.availHeight; screen_width = window.screen.availWidth; left_point = parseInt(screen_width/2)-(459/2); top_point = parseInt(screen_height/2)-(171/2); setTimeout('NewWindow.moveTo(left_point,top_point) ',100); void(0);");
Which made it work the only thing is it pop up including the browser menu at the top - does anyone know how i can get rid of this?
Also within the html doc - http://www.design8ed.com/digitalspir.../designcs.html i have a close button which when reviewed works but when published it doesn't close the browser window - is there something i'm missing - why isn't it working?
Your help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Launching Embedded PDFs In Acrobat Reader Rather Than A Browser Window
I'm pretty sure that my subject title gives an overview of my issue...
I am currently working on my first official interactive CD-Rom in Flash MX. I'm having issues with properly viewing my PDFs.
The presentation is to contain PDFs which can be opened into a new window when you click on the PDF link. I could only find the code which launches the item in a bowser window upon clicking. I need the PDF to launch into the Reader program, as the majority of the user base will not have access to an online browser. Is this even possible?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thank you

Full Screen Mode Cancelled By Launching PDF In Browser Window
There are quite a few of these posts on here. After Flash 9 the fullscreen fscommand no longer retains its fullscreen display if you use getURL to launch a browser window to display either a web page or a PDF. All of the previous posts have been "answered" by the Flash Jester Jugglor Support Team, unashamedly plugging JSTART and JUGGLOR to everyone raising this issue. When all we really need is a response from Adobe on how we can fix this - because it's obviously a BUG - and serves no real purpose. I DON'T want to buy JUGGLOR, I tried it years ago and found it buggy and unfathomable. All I want is to be able to keep my fullscreen!
The cynic in me wonders whether FlashJester might be owned by Adobe in some way, and by introducing this bug they're hoping to raise additional revenue from selling all those copies of JUGGLOR....?

Launching File Browser From A Flash Projector
I am making a CD that is a Flash projector with links to several .PDF and .DOC files that are located on the CD. I am trying to set it up where the user can just click on the file they want and their computer will open it.
The problem is I am trying to do so in a way that will work on both Windows and Mac. I did some Googling and in order to get the exec function to launch files, it needs to be tied to a batch file for Windows or a apple script file for Mac. I was thinking it would work better if there was a way to just have the button open up the folder that holds the file, if it works in both Windows & Mac.
Anyone know if there is a way to do this?

Launching A New IE Window From Flash
Hey I have an urgent problem with an assignment due tomorrow. I have a flash kiosk inside an internet explorer browser window and there are buttons inside the flash that link to different .html files. I want these files to load in a new window, for HTML it would just be a case of target="_blank" but I have no idea how to do this in flash. At the moment it loads in the current window taking the user away from the kiosk into a new page within the same browser window however I really need it to load in a brand new browser window.

Launching Applications On Top Of Flash Window
I am creating an information cd about a company. I have a few buttons that open pdf's and a couple that launch 2 applications. Powerpoint viewer and a driver install.
When I click on the button to launch pptview.exe that works fine, the pop up security box comes up asking if I want to run that program. But say I clicked on one of the pdf buttons first that opens up a new window displayin the pdf. If the person does not close out that new window and clicks ont he pptview.exe button the box that pops up to ask if you want to run that program is now behind my flash projector. Is there a way to ensure that when I launch that pptview.exe it will always launch on top of everything so that it isn't hidden behind any window. This problem also happens with the button to launch the driver install.
I use Flash MX 2004
and the actionscript I am using on the pptview button is.
on (release) {
getURL("Slideshow/pptview.exe");
}
I have tried using the fscommand but failed to get it working. my projector file is in the root folder and from there I created a folder named "fscommand" and within that folder I placed pptview.exe and used the actionscript
on (release) {
fscommand("exec","pptview.exe");
}
the button doesn't do anything. My ideal solution would be have the powerpoint file open automatically in powerpoint viewer but I can not get that to work. I tried using ftoolapp.exe and that comes with example flash projects using the program to show what you can do and how to do it and those don't even work.
I am desperate and looking for any solution. Even just fixing the problem to ensure that launching applications will be on top of all windows will be acceptable. If anyone can help please respond.
Thank You.

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");

Launching A Specific Web Browser?
I have a button in one of my movies that links to a website. When I click on the link and a browser is not already open, it automatically opens Netscape. My question is, does Flash just open the user's default browser (meaning that my computer's default browser is set to Netscape for some reason), or does it specifically look for netscape, and if so, is there a way to specify it to launch IE?

Launching Documents From A Browser
Ok, I've got something that used to work but has now been broken by the multitude of Microsoft's security updates.
I've got a Flash menu embedded in an HTML page which will be on a CD. When you click on links in the menu, it launches external content (.mpg, .doc, .ppt). Movies work fine. It opens in Media Player no problem. However, Word and Powerpoint are all busted. This is what happens when you click, say... a link that launches a Word Document.
1) A new page opens that says "Action Cancelled: Page cannot be displayed blah blah blah."
2) You go up to the address bar and press Enter (because the path is correct), and it launches Word.
3) Word opens, but gives an error message "The document name or path is invalid" and doesn't open the document.
I took all the files to a system that hasn't been hosed down by the security updates, and it works completely fine. When you click a document link, it gives you the Open/Save dialog box. You press Open, it launches Word no problem.
Any ideas on how to get around this problem?

Launching Browser From Within Loaded Movie
I snagged some lovely code from here about launching a browser window from within Flash (controlling all aspects of the window: scrollbars, size, etc.) using what was done here - http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/centered_popup.htm. That seemed to work fine, with the exception being I used the "_root.openWinCentre" code shown on the Kirupa site as opposed to the code in the downloadable file ("Movieclip.prototype.openWinCentre"). That works fine; it launches a browser. Problem is, when that movie is loaded into another movie, it no longer launches a browser. Works fine by itself, but does not once loaded into another Flash file. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

I have a dilemna. I need to know how when you either click on a hyperlink in a html file (using javascript etc.) or if neccesary a hyperlink in a flash file that it will launch a new window containing a .swf file which the viewer can then close.
The second part of the dilemna is I would like to know if it is possible to make this window shaped the way i want it - for example, a rectangle but with curved edges.
Whatever you can suggest would be very helpful. Thank you,

I used a tutorial by VAZBO (thanks to Vazbo in advance) for Launching a Centered Pop-Up Window...
and it works great except for some reason, when the html pop up window opens up, the artwork is shifted about 1cm down and a cm to the right, cropping the edge of the html.
any clues to why this is happening (i'm pretty sure it has nothing to do with the original script by Vazbo)... pretty urgent request?

Launching A Centered Pop-Up Window
Launching a Centered Pop-Up Window
Hi folks,
I have these clean scripts for launching a Centered popup window, but I cannot get the script to control the window size
here's the button action script:
on (release) {
//customize the window that gets opened
// 0 equals NO.
// 1 equals YES.
address = "http://www.johnhintlian.com/portfolio01.htm";
target_winName = "john";
width = 40;
height = 60;
toolbar = 0;
location = 0;
directories = 0;
status = 0;
menubar = 0;
scrollbars = 1;
resizable = 1;
//sends data back to the function
openWinCentre(address, target_winName, width, height, toolbar, location, directories, status, menubar, scrollbars, resizable);
}
here's the frame action:
_global.openWinCentre = function(url, winName, w, h, toolbar, location, directories, status, menubar, scrollbars, resizable) {
getURL("java script:window.open('"+url+"','"+winName+"','"+"wid th="+w+",height="+h+",toolbar="+toolbar+",location ="+location+",directories="+directories+",status=" +status+",menubar="+menubar+",scrollbars="+scrollb ars+",resizable="+resizable+",top='+((screen.heigh t/2)-("+h/2+"))+',left='+((screen.width/2)-("+w/2+"))+'"+"');void(0);");

Launching A New Window (how Embarrassing...)
Hi,
I know this is so basic but I'm in a bind and can't figure this out...
I am using a Flashloaded component (thumbnailer pro). There are three thumbnails, each of which needs to launch a unique URL. It just needs to open in a new window.
I have the following actionscript placed in the correct frame on my timeline:
Code:
var html_array=["http://www.flashloaded.com","http://www.flashkit.com", "http://www.cnn.com"];
tnailer.onThumbRelease=function(mc)
{
getURL(html_array[1,2,3],"_blank");
}
In my html page I am using thhe following javacsript:
Code:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/JavaScript">
<!--
function mm_openbrwindow(theURL,winName,features) { //v2.0
window.open(theURL,winName,features);
}
//-->
</script>
I am getting nowhere.... I'm not sure how to customize the script. Nothing I try works.
Error message: The requested URL /new-site/undefined was not found on this server.
Any takers?

Launching A Popup Window In AS
Hello,
I'm trying to launch a popup window in AS. In order to do that I'm using the following code:
Code:
getURL("javascript:void(window.open('/cswf/getmedia.aspx?id=" + p_mediaId + "','MediaPage','toolbar=no,width=300,height=300,noresize'))");
where p_mediaId is just a number that is passed to the ASPX.
Unfortunately the I.E. popup killer catches this link and prevents the window from opening.
Is there an effective way to solve this problem? How can I launch a popup window that isn't detected by the popup killer?

SWF File Launching Pop-up Window
I am putting a web site on a CD, using the Flash projector. I have used the tutorial for the Centered Pop-Up Window. Works great! Now I'm having a hard time making it work from the CD. I have searched but haven't found this similar problem.
All html files, images are in folders on the CD (Portlgpages) folder. The code for the window is:
on (release) {
//customize the window that gets opened
// 0 equals NO.
// 1 equals YES.
address = "http://www.eddygraphicdesign.com/Portlgpages/ill_08.html";
target_winName = "popup_08";
width = 288;
height = 650;
toolbar = 0;
location = 0;
directories = 0;
status = 0;
menubar = 0;
scrollbars = 1;
resizable = 0;
//sends data back to the function
openWinCentre(address, target_winName, width, height, toolbar, location, directories, status, menubar, scrollbars, resizable);
}
For example, I've changed the address to Portlgpages/ill_08.html but it doesn't work. Any suggestions?

Launching A Centred Pop Up Window
Hello Everyone.
I don't usually post any difficulties/problems that I encouter with Flash as I aways seem to work the issue out...eventually, however this occasion is different.
The tutorial on this wonderful site for "Launching a Centred Pop Up Window" is excellent. I have followed it to the letter to use this functionality on a site that is currently in development:
What I'm attempting to do is launch a centred "customizable" .swf
I have modified the script in the following way:
on (release) {
//customize the window that gets opened
// 0 equals NO.
// 1 equals YES.
address = http("D:\WEB_Projects\WedPopUpTestFile\CallupUR LTest.swf");
target_winName = "";
width = 400;
height = 300;
toolbar = 0;
location = 0;
directories = 0;
status = 0;
menubar = 0;
scrollbars = 1;
resizable = 0;
//sends data back to the function
openWinCentre(address, target_winName, width, height, toolbar, location, directories, status, menubar, scrollbars, resizable);
}
the Java script remains un-changed at:
_global.openWinCentre = function(url, winName, w, h, toolbar, location, directories, status, menubar, scrollbars, resizable) {
getURL("javascript:window.open('"+url+"','"+winNam e+"','"+"width="+w+",height="+h+",toolbar="+toolba r+",location="+location+",directories="+directorie s+",status="+status+",menubar="+menubar+",scrollba rs="+scrollbars+",resizable="+resizable+",top='+(( screen.height/2)-("+h/2+"))+',left='+((screen.width/2)-("+w/2+"))+'"+"');void(0);");
};
Unfortunately this is not producing the required result. I want to open a seperate .swf file [centred and customized] that will control audion on the site.
If someone could be so kind as to point me in the correct direction, i'd be very appreciative.
Many thanks
Handle

I've got everything to work fine from my local environment ( C:drive), however, when I post to my Beta site, the popup does not work. Would you kindly show me what the issues might be? I've tried almost everything..and have to resort to your expertise. Here's the code you've provided, and I've tried this code and it works fine on C:, but not when it's live -Thank you in advance.
on (release) { //customize the window that gets opened // 0 equals NO. // 1 equals YES. address = "http://www.kirupa.com/modular/pop-up.htm"; target_winName = "kirupa"; width = 400; height = 300; toolbar = 0; location = 0; directories = 0; status = 0; menubar = 0; scrollbars = 1; resizable = 0; //sends data back to the function openWinCentre(address, target_winName, width, height, toolbar, location, directories, status, menubar, scrollbars, resizable);}

Re:Launching A Centered Pop-Up Window
hi!
i recently used the kirupa.com tutorial [Launching a Centered Pop-Up Window] to do exactly that... and it worked great (finally), except that it doesn't seem to work in internet explorer. firefox, safari and netscape are all fine. it's so strange, and i can't manage to figure out where the problem lies.
other popups (other flash sites, my own javascript sites) work, but this one is just driving me crazy! it doesn't show up at all.
i used a tutorial for MX, though i have MX 2004.
any suggestions?
thanks so much!

Launching An External .avi In A New Window
hi all,
I've been searching for a way to launch an external movie file (preferably a .avi) from a button inside of flash mx 2004. I am trying to get it so a new window (seperate from the .swf or .exe that the flash is in) pops up and plays the .avi in the user's default player, whatever that may be.
I have tried the fscommand, which works great for launching another .exe, but does nothing for other files. I have also tried getURL, but that just opens a new default browser window.
does anyone have any suggestions? any help would be GREATLY appreciated!
thanks so much,
emily

Launching Window .onload
Hello,
I am trying to create a window launcher that will work with url variable.
I have created a page such as this in javascript but alas, popup blockers will defeat it.
To test it out go to www.ageofeternity.com/magelo/magelo.htm?26510 (make sure allow http1.1 through proxy settings is checked)
As you can see, the page works well if you add that domain to allow pop-ups. I am turning to flash to see if I can't get around the blocker issue (and around the click to activate with swfobject). Does flash allow you to do that since flash is creating the new window?
--------------------------------
Here is whats done so far:
Code:
_root.onLoad = function(launchwindow){
getURL("javascript:launch(http://eq.magelo.com/profile/26510)");
}
When I export the movie, it works locally and pops up a bad url of course there is no javascript:launch(http/etc) on the web. But when I put it on the site with this as the launching page:
HTML Code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<title>Magelo Launcher</title>
<script type="text/javascript">
function launch (page) {
openwin = this.open(page,"Profile",& '#34';location=no,scrollbars=yes,toolbar=no,menubar=no,resizable=no,width='600',height='500',top='20',left='20'")}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,19,0" width="550" height="400" title="launchflash">
<param name="movie" value="test2.swf" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<embed src="test2.swf" quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="550" height="400"></embed>
</object>
</body>
</html>
I am hoping for a solution that many users can use to link on forum signatures to create the authentic look. If you use just URL links, you get toolbars, and other junk in the way that distorts the profile.
Any assistance would be appreciated
