Hello

I was hoping someone could help me out as I am stumpped with this browser popup problem.

I want to open a pop up window in a browser through a button in a flash movie. The flash movie will be playing on its own ( that is not embedded in an html file)

I tried using the code and information found here:
Pop Up Windows In Flash With Javascript

I put a file called pdf.txt in the same directory on my computer as the flash movie (SWF).

here is the code I have attached to a button in the movie:

on (press) {
getURL("javascript:NewWindow=window.open('pdf.txt' ,'newWin','width=400,height=300,left=0,top=0,toolb ar=No,location=No,scrollbars=No,status=No,resizabl e=No,fullscreen=No');NewWindow.focus();void(0);");
}
Does anyone have any ideas why this wont work?

I am using Flash MX and IE6.0 installed on my system. Also I am running Windows 2000.

What happens when I test it out is that it seems like the browser window is repeatedly trying to load... but the way to describe it is its like it is stuttering.

Any ideas or help or info on another tutorial to do this would be tremendously appreaciated.

Thanks so much for your time and help.
