Re: how to launch windows from flash?

In a message dated 98-04-27 12:29:09 EDT, you write:


<< i need to launch a new browser window from inside of a flash movie. i'd 

 like to be able to specify the height, width, scrollbars, etc. as well 

 when it launches.

This is copied directly from a post at the macromedia.flash newsgroup, and it

worked beautifully on IE and NN.


Dennis,


A nice person by the name Jamie offered this suggestion one time and it

works beautifully.


To open a new window use JavaScript to make it work.


In your "getURL" instead of putting in something like

"http://www.wherever.com" put this:


JavaScript:openNewWin()


Then before the closing </HEAD> tag,  put this script:


<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">


function openNewWin() {

win2=window.open("your targeted URL goes

here","NewWindow","toolbar=no,directories=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=no,width=

300,height=150");


}

</SCRIPT>


Hope this helps.
