k..this would be the code youd use in the flash to open a popup window..u change the url and the height and width to what u want

    getURL ("javascript:window.open('http://','NameofWindow','width=100,height=100,top=0,left=0'); void(0)");

and heres the html for opening a browser window with all of the features..u just add the features you want into the above code and it should open with them

('http://','nameofwindow','width=100,height=100,left=0,top=0,toolbar=yes,menubar=yes,location=yes,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes,directories=yes,copyhistory=yes',1)

hopefuly you understand on how to do this...email me or reply if u need more help

i tried using this code:

getURL ("javascript:window.open('ie/index.html','NameofWindow','width=100,height=100,t op=0,left=0'); void(0)");

and when i click the link i get one full window opening up entirely blank and then a pop-up window opening that says it can't find the requested file. i don't understand why it will not open the file and why an extra window is opening. i do have the file named correctly and in the right dirctory.

you have the wrong code..the first code is perfect,

 javascript:window.open('http://','NameofWindow','width=100,height=100,top=0,left=0'); void(0)

u can add the little things you want into that, but dont mess the code up..u had like open ie something that was wrong

[roopi]

sorry i'm confused. you don't want me to edit the code at all?

i thought i needed to change the URL so it would open the page i want.

Tnx, code works great, just what i needed

k sorry..ill try to make it more clear.,
this is the code to make a popup with no menu or anything(which u place in the get url area

javascript:window.open('http://','NameofWindow','width=100,height=100,top=0,left=0'); void(0)

k and this is the code to make a window pop up with all the buttons and menu items

javascript:window.open('http://','nameofwindow','width=100,height=100,left=0,top=0,toolbar=yes,menubar=yes,location=yes,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes,directories=yes,copyhistory=yes',1)

k..u see how the second one (the one that opens with all the features) has like the scrollbars=yes or copyhistory=yes, well all those that say ues that u dont want in the popup. you just take out of the code..like if i didnt want a scrollbar but wanted everything else id just subtract that from the code...u could also try pasting that exact code and instead of yes put no on the stuff u dont want, but ive never tried that so i dunno if it works.

thats an awsome footer thing. this may seem stupid, but if its simple enough to explain and you will take the time, how did you make it?
