RE: FLASH: Target = _blank question

[Eric Dunham]

Have you tried using a

window.open('yourfile.cfm?nam=value','your_win','attribs'); ?

I've never had a problem using a querystring with JavaScript and passing all

the name=value pairs that I want to the new page. And of course, all you

have to do with the new page is reference them via #URL.varname# It makes

life a lot easier (well, it did for me :)

HTH,

Eric Dunham

Actually, what's happening is that the JavaScript is opening up the pop up,

and the .CFM file is firing.... only the variables aren't being passed to

the .CFM file from the .SWF form (I tried "Post" & "Get" with equally dismal

results).  However, when I take the JavaScript out of the Get URL code and

then target a _blank page... it freakin' works..... but I can't control the

new page, other than to close it!!!  AAARRRRGGHHH!!!
