Trying To Open New Window From Flash Exported Exe
i am trying to get a flash exe to open new windows which are essentially popups (no menu,scroll, etc) Works fine when parent movie is in swf format on html page. I would like to know if there is any javascript or actionscript which will work from an exe (which is not embedded in html) Is this possible?

Flash Site Exported In %age - How To Open It In Full Screen
a flash site was designed to be viewed in dimension as percentage
(width="100%" height="100%
it was visualized in several diferent monitors , with diferent resolutions and survived in most of them ;
however , in some offices , people use browser large buttons and those nasty search engines nav bar (yahoo , google , etc ) ;
In some of those cases I noticed that 14´´ & 15 ´´ video monitors with resolutions configured 800x600 made the site decrease in size so that it becomes illegible.
I thought that the possible solution would be to open it in full screen , thus eliminating the buttons and the bar ;
Your suggestions will be welcome in order to solve this trouble.
Thank you very much ,

Using Js To Open A Window From Flash
I certainly have a problem.
I have a small .swf in my .html, layed a invisible button over it to link it to another page.
But i dont´t want it to open a new fullscreen window.
In html i´d use this javascript:
<html>
<head>
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
function na_open_window(name, url, left, top, width, height, toolbar, menubar, statusbar, scrollbar, resizable)
{
toolbar_str = toolbar ? 'yes' : 'no';
menubar_str = menubar ? 'yes' : 'no';
statusbar_str = statusbar ? 'yes' : 'no';
scrollbar_str = scrollbar ? 'yes' : 'no';
resizable_str = resizable ? 'yes' : 'no';
window.open(url, name, 'left='+left+',top='+top+',width='+width+',height= '+height+',toolbar='+toolbar_str+',menubar='+menub ar_str+',status='+statusbar_str+',scrollbars='+scr ollbar_str+',resizable='+resizable_str);
}
// -->
</script>
</head>
<body>
....
<a href="javascript:na_open_window('name', 'http://www.what-ever.com', 0, 0, 320, 255, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0);">
</body>
</html>

Flash MX Help (Open A New Window)
Hello everybody. First I just want to say that flash truly does rock. And I think everyone on these boards rock. We are all flash designers and I think that is really really cool.
This is what I am trying to do.
I am trying to build a flash project that has a few pages that are within the same scene by using labels and actionscript, easy enough. What I am not sure how to do is link to a page in lets say an html folder to my flash project.
In other words if i have my flash project called flashproject.swf embedded into my main index.html file, how can I have the flash buttons within my flashproject.swf to open up a new window that is html based or another html file with another flash swf embedded within its source ?
Also, for now the project is temporary I do not have a webspace or a domain name, so i need flash to work as a host of html files would, easy enough to simply upload and test without having to constantly change links or directories.
Basically a flash interface that leads to html pages in a seperate directory.
Anyone ???
Thank you
Adamo

Open Pdf Files Causing IE Window To Open And Crash
On a macintosh OSX, when trying to open a pdf using:
getURL(./somePDF.pdf")

Is there a way to open PDF documents using flash that doesn't open an IE browser window on mac OSX?
Open Window From Flash (Advanced)
I want to open a jpg file in a new HTML window of a specified size using a flash button but there is more to it....the button must link to the jpg file not a HTML page. I need to open many JPG's for an ongoing job and do not wish to create a corresponding html doc for each one. I also wish to specify the default background colour and alignment (eg. centered) in the flash code so that each newly generated HTML page will look the same.
This is what I don't want:
pages/pics/pic.html...with a pic linked to the html.
The link will be:
pages/pics/pic.jpg...and the html page will need to generate and popup with "pic.jpg" inside it...on the fly.
I would be forever indebted if someone were to respond!

Javascript Open.window And Flash
Hi everybody...
some time ago Kolt and I discussed about
the geturl and a JS function that opens a new browser
window without status, link and button bar, no resizable.
the trick is:
put in the html page this script
<script language="JavaScript">
function launchwin(newURL, newName, newFeatures,) {
var remote = open(newURL, newName, newFeatures);
if (remote.opener == null) // if something went wrong
remote.opener = window;
remote.opener.name = orgName;
return remote;
}
</script>
then in the button (or in th MC with on clipevent trigger)
put this code:
getURL ("javascript:launchwin('mydoc.htm','Mydocname','wi dth=x,height=y')");
does anyone know why it does not work?
In the past I tried something and it worked
(but I lost the *.FLA files).
Now my browser (IE 5) opens a new window called
launchwin('mydoc.htm','Mydocname','width=x,height= y');
???
thanks in advance

Open Javascript Window From Flash
PROBLEM:
I've posted this before but nobody responded. SOMEONE must have had a similar problem. I'll mention it again:
I have a website that works like this. There is a Flash movie that contains the navigation. When you click on a button, say, "Portfolio" it loads a movie called portfolio into an empty MC in the main movie clip (the one with the navigation). From the Portfolio clip, you can click on an item from the portfolio, say a "Sample Site" - That then opens in a second empty movie clip. The "Sample Site" clip then has some text about what I did on the site, etc, and then a button which is to open (via javascript) a new window with the "Sample Website" in it.
Now - Of course I know how to use javasscript to open a window. And I know how to do it in Flash. This is where the problem comes in. There's no trouble running this in Netscape, or even on Internet Explorer from my hard drive. But when it's online, in Internet Explorer nothing happens when I click on the button to open a new window via javascript.
Nothing happens..Not even a javascript error. But when I view it on my hard drive with IE it works just fine. Netscape works fine with it both on my hard drive and on the web.
So can anyone tell me why it won't work in IE 6 when it's online?!?! It's driving me mad.
Here's the website - www.mattreider.com
Go to the Portfolio button, then click on "Expiry Christmas Card 2002" - You'll see a thumbnail of the project. Click on that and a pop up window with the Movie should pop up....But it doesn't.
Help! What's with this IE bug??
Please respond asap...I really appreciate any help.
Cheers,
Matt
How Can You Open A Flash Window Using Html?
I want to use a dynamic text box to upload updates I've made to the site. I was wondering if I could put any type of coding in the text file to allow the link to open a flash window. Say I have a link, and I want it to open a window in flash for a 8-ball flash movie. I guess I could put the 8-ball flash movie in html and then have the link just go to that html file with the flash in it. Is there any other way to do it?

Open New Window In Flash Only? Not On Webpage
I need to open new window full screen with no bars or anything on, basically blank (it has another flash movie) The actual file is just flash its not on a webpage though.
Im using:
on (release) {getURL("webpages/carol.htm",'_blank,scrollbars=no,location=no,menub ar=no,');
}
And although a window opens I cannot get anything else to dispear? does anyone know if its possible or any commands to remove the things in this way?
update, apparently get url doesnt work for this. So this must mean there is no way to open a new window that can have no scrolls etc with a flash movie on from within a flash movie. Thats pretty crappy! unless someone knows a work around?
Open A New Window From A Flash Form
Hello:
I am trying to open a new window from a Flash form.
I am using
submit.form="/services/sale/";
and I would like for the results page to open a new html window, but when I do this:
submit.form="/services/sale/", "_blank";
it doesn't work. I don't want to use JavaScript, because I am trying to avoid pop up blockers. The form action doesn't take place within the button itself but within a frame.
I am using Flash MX 2004 (7.2).
Can anybody help? Thank you!
