Button to open other flash file

[dtk3]

Hello. I have a flash document that contains a menu with multiple buttons. For one of the buttons I want to open another flash document in a new window (kinda like a popup) but only when the user clicks on the button. I want to, also, control how the window is sized as well as not allow any toolbars, buttons, address bar etc. I want it to open the other flash file and show it's content in a browser window with just the X and - in the top right corner of the window.

I know how to create a URL link for the button and have it open in a new window but am not familiar with Actionscript enough to know 1.) If it can control the windows size etc and 2.) How to do it.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Hello! I have some code for javascript already. Can I use this in Flash??? If not I think I will have to link the button in Flash to the HTML document that has the javascript in it and then call the other flash file.

This seems like a lot more work!
