I'm not that good in Flash, but I think this should work proper:

First, create a normal HTML-document containing the embedded movie. Then you can access this file thru getURL("my_movie.htm","_blank"); (must be added as an action to a keyframe or button *). If you want to open a special window (i.e. without toolbar etc.), you should ask again...

*)
I think, this is the most common way. Righclick a button of your choice, choose "Actions" an type in the following code:

Code:

on (release) { 
   getURL("my_movie.htm","_blank");
}

As far as I know, you can use normal javascript within Flash (something like "toolbar=no,width=300,height=200"). But I don't know where to put it...

Hi

Paste this within the <head> tag of your html document:

Code:

<head>
<script language="javascript"> 
   <!-- 
   function winOpen(url, breite, hoehe) {
      // calculates the coordinates required to center the pop up window
      links = (screen.width/2)-(breite/2);
      oben = (screen.height/2)-(hoehe/2);
      window.open(url,"popup","height="+hoehe+",width="+breite+",status = no,toolbar = no,menubar = no,location = no,resizable = no,titlebar = no,scrollbars = no,fullscreen = no,top ="+oben+",left ="+links);
   } 
   //--> 
</script> 
</head>

In the flash environment, assign the following script to a button by right-clicking it and choosing "actions" from the context menu:

PHP-Code:


			
on (release) {

    getURL("javascript:winOpen(yoursite.html', 300, 200); void(0);");

}

javascript without a space between java and script.

yoursite.html represents the url of your page, '300'/'200' define the width/height of the popup window.

@Johannes

Das bedeutet also, dass ich aus Flash heraus ganz normale Javascript-Funktionen aufrufen kann?

(In English

: This means, I can access normal javascript-functions out of Flash?)

Zitat:

In der Tat, ist wie bei HTML Links, einfach ein javascript: voranstellen und die Funktion aufrufen.

Indeed, this applies to html links as to flash links as well.. just precede each function call with "javascript:" and it'll do fine

Hey again

Thank's for the tip.

But I still cant get it to work ?
I'm shure that I'm the one who is doing it all wrong.
I've have to say that html. is not my strong side.

Well I gues that I just have to keep on trying.

At which part you exactly have the problems?

the0bone · 15.03.2002, 07:51

If it´s only a script problem, post a link to your site!

You have to make sure to paste the javascript code within the <head> tags of the opener page, not the page you'd like to open.
