pop up window no toolbar or resize FLASH CS3 AS2.0

Im about to go nuts.

I have tried many different methods and now EE is my last resort. I even tried examples posted on EE, but for some reason my window will not work.

I am making a VERY BASIC, VERY GENERIC, NOT SPECIAL AT ALL, pop up window from flash.

I want the window to be say 500 X 700 in dimension and have no toolbars or be able to resize.

The problem is when I do it from flash this way

popup_btn.onRelease = function() {
getURL("xxx/index.html","_blank");
}

or when I actually put it on the button itself

on(release) {
getURL("blablabla/index.html","_blank");
}

it doesnt work.

I have no clue why. The syntax above may not be accurate 100% as I am trying this from head only without reference, but I know you guys get the idea.

Can someone show me how to do this in AS 2.0 for the flash player 8 and above, that will work on all browsers.?

Im testing this on wamp. Could this be the issue?

Hellow,

You need a piece of javasript to make a popup windown without browser functionality.

I have attached the javascript code and the flash code.

Hope this works for you.

this is the piece of javascript you need to place in your html page just abouve the </head> tag
 
<script language="javascript">
function MM_openBrWindow(theURL,winName,features) { //v2.0
  window.open(theURL,winName,features);
}
</script>
 
in flash you can call this javascript by using
 
on(release){
	getURL("javascript:MM_openBrWindow('popup.html','popup','width=500,height=700')");
}

Open in new window

thanks for the response.

I tried but it did not work.

I know there is more than likely something very small that I am missing...I am attaching two files for you to look at too see where the problem is.

the.fla and the .html

the tab with the popup that isnt working is the "music" tab.

retain the directory structure and try it out...you will more than likely see my issue

thanks
