Paul,

That makes sense. You might need to put Get URL"(javascript:shout();)" (not
sure if the ; is important or not). The only other thing I can see is that
you are missing a " in front of toolbar - surprised you aren't getting an
error from that. If you are getting an error what is it?

jb (and your not being a pain =0) )

Jason,

Thanks for all your kind help. Unfortunately it's still not working.

I've entered this in the html of the main flash movie:


<title>portfolio2000</title>
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
function shout() {

window.open("http://www.mobilixnet.dk/~mob33150/shout.html","shout",toolbar=
0,scrollbars=0,resizable=0,height=231,width=319");
}
// -->
</script>


'portfolio2000' is the name of the main movie, so goes between <title> and
</title>. Yes?

'shout' is the name of the new html page I want loaded in new window. So:
function shout() {

In the action for the button that triggers the new window I've put:
Get URL ("javascript:shout()") Window: is left clear.

I'm sorry if it seems like I'm going round and round in circles here, but
nothing I do seems to work.

Sorry to be a pain.

Regards,

Paul.
