I would like to link a button in a flash navigatoin bar to open a browser window, which we can set the window's width and height. How can i script the button to do so??

thanks if anyone can help.

Ok as to open a browser window... thats easy... just right click on your button and go to actions.. and click the "+" on that window and choose "Basic Actions", then choose "get URL"

It should be easy from there... as to setting the size of the window I have no idea.. but I'll look it up for you and if i figure out anything I'll let you know.

<< javascript:yourpopupname() (Expression box should be unchecked)

yourpopupname can be anything you want...call it banana or whatever...makes no difference. just remember...whatever it is called in Flash must be exactly what you call it in the HTML file. >>

sorry to ask..in flash what is the 'yourpopupname'?

i linked one button in my flash as below:

on (release) {
getURL (&quot;wineshop_wines.asp&quot;, &quot;_blank&quot;
}

pardon me, i am not a programmer, juz a designer who wants to learn more
