Multiple JavaScript Pop Up Window Problem

[bluetrainn]

Hello,
I have a problem with multiple javascripts on one html page. I have one (multiple) javaScript opening the page fullscreen which works fine, but does not allow the second openWindow function to work when being called from flash. I know the pop up works because I tested it independently, and it worked fine. Can someone help me out, or lead me in the right direction. All code is below Thanks, Jacob.

A couple of questions: forgive my ignorance:

1. Does the compiling of the script not allow the function to be called?
2. Would I be better off trying to use a .js file to call the function?


Flash Code Calling JavaScript Function:

mpic1.onRelease = function() {
getURL("javascriptpenWindow('http://www.mishamusic.com/pics/mpic1.htm','mynewWindow','left=80,top=180,toolbar= 0,scrollbars=0,height=700,width=481')");
}



Html: JavaScript:

<script language="JavaScript">
//Fullscreen Code
top.window.moveTo(0,0);
if (document.all) {
top.window.resizeTo(screen.availWidth,screen.avail Height);
}
else if (document.layers||document.getElementById) {
if (top.window.outerHeight<screen.availHeight||top.wi ndow.outerWidth<screen.availWidth){
top.window.outerHeight = screen.availHeight;
top.window.outerWidth = screen.availWidth;
}
}

function MM_openBrWindow(theURL,winName,features) { //v2.0
window.open(theURL,winName,features);
}

function MM_displayStatusMsg(msgStr) { //v1.0
status=msgStr;
document.MM_returnValue = true;
}

function MM_goToURL() { //v3.0
var i, args=MM_goToURL.arguments; document.MM_returnValue = false;
for (i=0; i<(args.length-1); i+=2) eval(args[i]+".location='"+args[i+1]+"'");
}

//Function being called from Flash

function openWindow(URL, windowName, windowFeatures){
newWindow = window.open(URL, windowName, windowFeatures);
}

i'm assuming the function at the bottom is the one that is not working.

to get javascript to work from inside the flash video you have to use either

fscommand(); or getURL();

otherwise nothing will happen. Veiw the reference included with the AS editor to get the syntax.

i hope i answered your question.

It sounds like the javascript is not in the html for each of the windows you have open. Including the .js page on each new window will probably help

Hi,
you will need to rename the window for each window you want to open.
You have mynewWindow as the window name, so when you try to open a new window with the same code, mynewWindow is used again as the target.

You can use _blank or create a random string for each window name...
