javascript from swf

[millsrd]

read an article here about opening a popup from within a movie using typical javascript with get url.
Didn't work.
Is that because the script was calling an html that was calling a javascript menu, or maybe javascript doesn't work inside a swf.
Just curious.

Try this link:
http://www.actionscripts.org/tutoria...ry/index.shtml

[millsrd]

getURL ("JavaScriptpenWin('links.html', '250', '250')");

this should open a popup, simple but true, other variables come after it works, works outside of swf.

<script language="JavaScript">
function openWin(url, w, h)
{
var winprop = "width=" + w + ",height=" + h;
openwin = window.open(url,'',winprop);
}
</script>

in head of html. Cannot get any simpler than this.
does actionscript tutorial imply that you can use the popMaker function with all attributes acknowledged to open this window.
This window is an html with a javascript call to a menu script, a .js for the engine and another for the menu format.
The link was a very nice addition to Flash, I must be missing something little, time to kiss it (keep it simple stupid).

No bother, only gif wouldn't show, the script actually worked, so rebuilt.

its better anyway, smaller and faster, no intro or loader needed.
