How to create pop-up windows in Flash ?

**!const** · 17-12-2008

On a site I built a flash and I kept one button that opens a pop-up to enlarge an image. It works very well in Firefox but not in Internet Explorer 7.

Here is the code on my button in flash:

Code:

on (release) {
getURL ("javascript: openWin()"); 
}

and here is my html code placed between <head> and </ head> after publication

HTML Code:

<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript"> 
function openWin() {
new = window.open (URL, NAME, PROPERTIES) 
}</script>

Yet I can not request for permission to display the pop-up. I only get "error on page" in the bottom of the page to the left while under Firefox it is working.

Please help.

Can you remove the language = "javascript" because it troubles me, even if it is not the cause of your problems! Is JS necessary in your case?

But it is not necessarily what I found easier for release between flash and js and if you can offer me something else that really works in the 2 browsers then I am listening.

Here are my codes:

as I have a flash button with the following action:

Code:

on (release) 
{
getURL ("javascript:popup ('popup.htm', 'jewelry', 'width = 520, height = 520, left = 200, top = 100, scrollbars = no, resizable = no')"); 
}

and the html page:

HTML Code:

<title> jewelryPage1 </title> 

<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript"> 

function popup (URL, NAME, PROPERTIES) 
{
new = window.open (URL, NAME, PROPERTIES) 
}
</script>

and the "body":

HTML Code:

<body bgcolor="#333333"> 
<!-- URLs used in animation--> 
<a href="jewelryPage1.html"> </a> 
<a href="jewelryPage2.html"> </a> 
<a href = "javascript:popup('popup.htm', 'jewelry', 'width=520, height=520, left=200, top=100, scrollbars=no, resizable=no')"> </a> 
<!-- text used in animation-->
