Heya! I'm still new to Flash, and was wondering if someone could tell me how (or if it's possible!) to make a popup open from inside an SWF file?
Does that make sense?
I mean, in the same way as it would work from an HTML file?
Thanks

Popup from inside SWF?

yep it is
Flash 8 AFAIK cant popup things by itself, but it can trigger a javascript that can.
Basically what you need is to insert this code between the <head>here</head> tags of your HTML file where did you embed your flash movie. This is the script used to popup things (pics,html):
once you have done this you can add the popup function to your button in your flash movie. like this:Code:<script language ="javascript"> function resizeWindow(theurl, windowname, features) {window.open(theurl, windowname, features);} </script>
as you can see its the same getURL principe, but you call upon the script and send a few paramters too. They are all adjustable to your liking.Code:on (release) { getURL("javascript:resizeWindow('something.html', 'windowName', 'height=640, width=800, resizable=0, status=no, scrollbars=no, toolbar=0, location=0, directories=0, menubar=0, left=0, top=0')"); }
I hope I wasnt too much confusing, its almost morning here and I haven't slept for some time, so I am a bit wasted
