    Unhappy nope

    Thanks Northcode, but that doesn't work either.
    I'd already tried this code before I bugged you!?

    }
    With your code, or with my original non-topmost buttons, here is what happens:

    I launch my full screen projector interface with web link buttons on it.

    If I click on a link and there are NO web browsers open, then it works just fine, and a web browser pops up with the website in it, in front of the projector.

    BUT if there is already a web browser open, when I push the button to launch a website, it will only work once more!

    After opening a second website, then it will no longer open above the projector interface. No idea why not.

    I missed the fullscreen part, sorry about that!

    I just retested and I can't make this fail so there's some piece of the puzzle that I'm missing. I saved my FLA down to Flash 8 and made it go fullscreen at startup, it's in the ZIP attachment.

    After opening a second website, then it will no longer open above the projector interface. No idea why not.
    Uhhh, the browser should STILL be above the projector, and it should stay there. The ony way you can "hide" it is to minimize it or close it.

    What OS are you seeing this on? (I'm using XP)
    What browser are you using? (I'm using Firefox 3.0.13)

    I'll try your latest test. Thanks.

    I now see what you mean, that the website should NOT go behind the interface even if I click on the projector. Strange...

    I'm using Windows XP and Firefox 3.5.3
