Is there a way to perhaps, load an SWF with an intro which is seperate from your main content?...

I would like to create a loading swf, which displays a couple pictures, and keeps users occupied for a while, then pop up a correctly sized window for my flash content...how can I do this? Regards,

Why does it have to be separate from main content?

It needs to be seperate mainly so I can open up a new window that is correctly sized...I really havent thought it over much...I haven't done any flash in a while...

But the site I'm designing had to get around some MAJOR technical flaws (my boss has to have it done HIS way.)..

But so far, I would like to be able to display information about the company, then load the flash site in another correctly sized window, etc. Regards,

getURL ("javascript:yourfunction()");
}

in the last frame of your loader swf...

then in your pop up have it call the main movies html...have the swf centered in nested tables...

Code: 
<BODY bgcolor=&quot;#000000&quot; leftmargin=&quot;0&quot; topmargin=&quot;0&quot; marginwidth=&quot;0&quot; marginheight=&quot;0&quot;>
<table width=&quot;100%&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;100%&quot;>
  <tr align=&quot;center&quot; valign=&quot;middle&quot;> 
    <td><!-- URL's used in the movie--> <!-- text used in the movie--> <!-- --><object classid=&quot;clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000&quot;
 codebase=&quot;[URL unfurl="true"]http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=5,0,0,0&quot;[/URL]
 width=700 height=500>
        <param name=movie value=&quot;yourfile.swf&quot;>
        <param name=menu value=false>
        <param name=quality value=high>
        <param name=bgcolor value=#000000>
        <embed src=&quot;yourfile.swf&quot; menu=false quality=high bgcolor=#000000  width=700 height=500 type=&quot;application/x-shockwave-flash&quot; pluginspage=&quot;[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash&quot;>[/URL]
        </embed> 
      </object> </td>
