Opening Links In New Window From A Centered Window...
Hi there. I used this chromeless centered window tutorial to create part of my page...

http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/centered_popup.htm

It works fine, I have a little intro, then you click a button, main page loads in the center like it should.

Thing is, I have links within the movie to outside websites, sites I want to display in their own window. When you click these links however, they get loaded up in the same centered window as my main page. Because theyre alot bigger than my flash, you can barely see even the corner of each site. And I want it to open a whole new, full size browser window with all the normal buttons it should have.

My site is the only one I wanted centered and chromeless, the others should act like any old link.

Got it? Think I made that all sound right...
Anyway, any ideas on what to do?

Opening A New Window WITH Furniture From A Window WITHOUT
Hi ya,

I've had a scoot around the site and seen some references to something similar to this problem I have. Hopefully if I describe it, someone will suggest something!!

Okay - we have a furniture less browser window opening up with a flash movie splash screen. Once the splash has finished, a 'Click Here' button appears, which has a getURL action on it. This new URL is supposed to open a new window but this time with furniture. Any suggestions as to how to do this because the norm is that the new window will inherite the layout (ie no furniture) of the last window.

many thanks in advance

frank

Opening A Window
This is probably a really easy question. It is kind of an HTML question to. I need to have a window open a smaller window when the user enters the site. I need the window to be 640 x 480, and like just be the window. No scrollbar, no toolbar, etc.

How can I do this? I am sure there is some simple HTML tags that I can add to the openwindow command or whatever.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Opening A New Window...
I'm trying to get it so that when a user clicks a button in my main flash movie, a new window pops up and plays an imbedded avi movie. Here's what I did, maybe someone can tell me what I'm doing wrong... for the button in the main flash movie I scripted: on (release) {get URL("kitty", "_blank");} The embedded avi, "kitty" is a completely different flash movie, published as an .html. When I bring up my webpage to test it and click on the button in my main movie, it opens the new window but does not play the movie... I just get a 404 message. Both html and swf files for both movies are loaded on my server in the same folder... can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Thanks.

Opening A New Window
I have designed a basic flash site, and want to know how to have it so when a user logs on they goto a html page and have the choice to enter the flash site or the standard html site. So I guess I'm not sure if it is a dreamweaver or a flash question?

I can get dreameaver to open a new window, but do I imbed the flash file into a html doc? Or is there a way I can just open the file as if I was normally opening the swf file? So that the window stays at 800x600 (the dimensions I set in flash)

Any help in regards to this topic would be great.

This is probably easy to you all, but how do I make a pop up window I followed a tutorial but to no avail my movie didnt work. What Im trying to do is have a button in my main movie open up a new browser menu, so the end user can see an image that can be right-clicked and saved as a wallpaper. Im just wondering what kind of code would I use for a button that sits in my main movie to open up a 1024x768 jpg, and for the end user to be able to download the file.

Opening Swf In New Window
ok... im not even sure if this is possible, becasue i admit i know almost nothing about actionscript, but is it possible for when a movie gets to a certain frame it can either play another movie in a new window, or load a different page (in a web site)?

ive re-read that and realized its a bit confusing... i dont know how to explain what im asking though. basicly what im trying to do is make a web portfolio of projects ive done, and i want the navigation to be in flash, so when i click a button it plays a short animation and redirects me to a page where the movie will play.

if that still doesnt make any sense, let me know ill try to explain it better i guess

Opening New SWF Window
Hey everyone,

I need help asap as this needs to be finished by today. All Im asking you is how to open a new .swf in a SEPERATE window

If you use the method _root.loadmovie, it opens the swf in which you get into the same window. Someone has suggested to me using the following code:

on(release){
getURL("newSWF.swf","_blank");
}


Theres a few problems with this. First of all when I tried it when a test swf it seemed to work , but the swf in which it was to open, opened in a new BROWSER and I need a new swf window

Secondly, I tried with my game menu and the URL worked fine if I load the movie , but when I use the getURL method, the url I used doesnt seem to work

If someone could please help me out it would be greatly appreciated

Hey there I have code on a keyframe where if the user clicks on a button it loads an external jpg into an empty MC, what I want to do is for the user to be able to click on the loaded jpg and then a new window would open with the image at a biger size.......any ideas on how to do this??

Here's the code:

if (this._alpha<100) {
this._alpha += 10;
} else {
delete this.onEnterFrame;
}
};
};
bar._visible = false;
border._visible = false;
my_mc = new MovieClipLoader();
preload = new Object();
my_mc.addListener(preload);
preload.onLoadStart = function(targetMC) {

container._alpha = 0;
bar._visible = true;
border._visible = true;
pText._visible = true;
};
preload.onLoadProgress = function(targetMC, lBytes, tBytes) {
bar._width = (lBytes/tBytes)*100;
pText.text = "% "+Math.round((lBytes/tBytes)*100);
};
preload.onLoadComplete = function(targetMC) {
container.fadeIn();
border._visible = false;
bar._visible = false;
dText._visible = false;
trace(targetMC+" finished");

Opening In New Window Please Help
Hi,
I have a flash movie that is the header to a regular html website I am doing. The links to other pages are inside of the flash header and are set with getURL with the variables of the web page and _self. For some reason, the first link clicked on insists on opening in a new window, while the subseqent links clicked on open in the same window. Can someone please help me!? I have to have it always open in the same window!
P.S. i can't upload my .fla file, so if you need to see it, i can send it to you. Here is the actionscript for the file, though. it is located on the first frame in a unique layer.

code: //links
//about us
aboutUsMC.onRollOver = function() {

}
aboutUsMC.onRelease = function() {
getURL("about.html", _self);
}

//contact us
contactMC.onRelease = function() {
getURL("contact.html", _self);
}

//products
productsMC.onRelease = function() {
getURL("products.html", _self);
}

//dogs
dogsMC.onRelease = function() {
getURL("dogs.html", _self);
}

//home
homeMC.onRelease = function() {
getURL("index2.html", _self);
}

//ushs
ushsMC.onRollOver = function() {
this.gotoAndStop("rollover");
//trace("onRollOver");
}
ushsMC.onRollOut = function() {
this.gotoAndStop("normal");

Opening In New Window
In my project I have scrolling thumbnails at the bottom of the screen and when you click on one of the thumbnails a larger image shows up above it in the same window. Now I want the larger image (which is also a button) to open a new window with that image even larger and with more detail. My question is how do I do this? Do I have to publish all my largest images separate (the pop ups) cause I know you can do a "get URL" command but I don't have any of my largest images on the web anywhere so they don't have URLs. Any help or suggestions please? I'm close kinda new to the whole publishing thing and would like to get this site up by the end of this month. I would like it to where the largest images open in a new window that is the size of the image with no white boarders or anything but that's another subject. All of my largest images were resized in photoshop at 10x8 so none of them will be bigger than a typical computer screen.

Does anyone know how to open a new window when a user clicks a button?

I used the following code in the click event handler:

navigateToURL("javascript:window.open('flashplayer .html','win','width=750,height=550');");

or

the following which calls a function flashplayer from the html file the swf is embedded in:

navigateToURL("javascript:flashplayer");

I included set the allowScriptAccess to always in the html as well.

but nothing happens????

Opening A New Window
Hey all. I seem to come up with weird questions and I hope I challenge those out there who appretiate the problems I find. Here is the latest scenario.

THE SCENARIO
in the gallery section of http://www.thisislondonclub.com/data...don/index2.asp
you will see a list of dates.
click only on the first one in the list and then some pictures will appear.
click only on the first picture and a new window will pop up with the picture again IN SWF FORM (please note this comment for later reference).


THE FILE SYSTEM
my directory is set up in a folder with subfolders of various components. in the first folder is my "index.htm" page with the "main.swf" also sharing that space.
A subfolder called "pictures" is in this folder and within that is another subfolder called "20030104"
see this windows explorer like diagram
ie:
--------+Desktop Folder
------------------------+mysitefolder
------------------------------index.htm
------------------------------main.swf
------------------------------+pictures
----------------------------------------+20030104
------------------------------------------------ Lond01.jpeg
-------------------------------------------------Lond02.jpeg
-------------------------------------------------Lond03.jpeg
-------------------------------------------------main.swf


AN EXAMPLE OF CODE
on the picture that you click to make the new window appear the code is as follows


onClipEvent (mouseDown) {
address = "pictures/20030104/main.swf";
target_winName = "kirupa";
width = 550;
height = 350;
toolbar = 0;
location = 0;
directories = 0;
status = 0;
menubar = 0;
scrollbars = 0;
resizable = 0;
//sends data back to the function
openWinCentre(address, target_winName, width, height, toolbar, location, directories, status, menubar, scrollbars, resizable);

}


You can see under address the file system I have set up.

WHAT I NEED DONE
This is where it gets difficult.
The pictures that load in SWF FORM (see above) I need to be a jpeg. I cannot get the new window to load "lond01.jpeg" instead of "main.swf". I've tried changing the
address = "pictures/20030104/main.swf";
to
address = "pictures/20030104/lond01.swf";
but the jpeg does not load. This probably has a simple solution.

The next and biggest and most difficult to understand problem!!!

Ok please view the address again and see how the loaded pictures work. You'll notice that they scroll across like a slide show. I want to make each picture a button like the first picture is so that it opens a link to download the pictures jpeg source.
For example... the pictures from January 4th 2003 are all saved as jpegs in "20030401 subfolder" as is the swf the pictures are displayed in.

Thats cool I can do that once i figure out how to load the jpeg instead of a swf.
BUT
Is there a way to change the code from being subfolder pathing dependant.
ie: instead of
address = "pictures/20030104/main.swf";
which is dependant on the 20030104 folder. I would rather have a code I would not have to change when I make a new folder and set of pictures.
something like
address = "main.swf";
would be be what I'm looking for but by doing that it looks in the main folder where my index is located.

Have I completely lost anyone and everyone?

I followed the instructions to open a new window from Flash, but I may have missed a step because it's not working. I'm getting an error from Firefox which states:

Error: windowOpener not defined

I used the javascript to open the new window from Flash, and I pasted the code provide by your site into the body of my index.html page of my site. Can you be more specific on what I need to define as well as where/how I need to name all values? This is the actionscript on my button in Flash:

[IMG]file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/tonyj/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/moz-screenshot.jpg[/IMG][IMG]file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/tonyj/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/moz-screenshot-1.jpg[/IMG]on (release) {
getURL("javascript:windowOpener('http://www.myurl.com/mobile.html', '_blank', 'height=345, width=600')");

Opening New Window
hey to everyone,

Sorry if i missed other posts. I am trying to open a new window in flash without borders. i was wondering how to accomplish this in Flash mx 2004 pro.
Kirupa and tutorialized has some but it is for earlier versions. I am not a wiz at action script so I cannot tell weather those tuts will work with flash mx 2004. From what I gather, you have to add javascript on the button, publish and then edit the html file. I have tried some and I am able to get the window to popup but the swf isn't loading in it. I simply want a intro page that links to my flash site. But only to have the flash site without borders. If someone could walk me through the steps, that would be great. meanwhile, I will keep trying.

Thanks

Opening Pop-up Window
hi everybody

here's a question I hope you can help me with.
on my scene there are 10 small pictures. when one of these pictures are clicked, I want a pop-up window to show a larger version of the pop-up window..

but instead of making a function to each, it would be nicer to make just one function that could handle every pop-up...

so - first of all - I make the small pictures call the same function:


ActionScript Code:
miniature01_mc.onRelease = aabnNytVindue();
miniature02_mc.onRelease = aabnNytVindue();


and so on...

and i write my function:


ActionScript Code:
function aabnNytVindue(whatPicture){
   getURL("here's my file to be opened");
}



now I hope you can help me finish this script.
I guess I need to send a parameter describing the picture to be shown in a pop-up?


thanks
