pop up window in the screen CENTER

[dragon_lady]

Hi,

How to add screenX and screenY in below actionscript to make the pop up window in the screen CENTER.


function myFunction() {

getURL("javascript:NewWindow=window.open('URL','ne wWin','width=350,height=300,left=0,top=0,toolbar=n o,location=no,scrollbars=no,status=no,resizable=no ,fullscreen=no');NewWindow.focus();void(0);")
}

openLink = function(param,name,w,h,a,b,c,d,e,f,g){
sUrl = param;
resx = System.capabilities.screenResolutionX;
resy = System.capabilities.screenResolutionY;
lft = resx/2 - w/2;
tp = resy/2 - h/2;

getURL("javascript:window.open('"+sUrl+"','"+name+
"','width="+w+",height="+h+",top="+tp+",left="+lft+
",directories="+a+",location="+b+",menubar="+c+
",resizable="+d+",status="+e+",toolbar="+f+
",scrollbars="+g+"');void(0);");
};

popUpBtn.onPress = function(){
openLink("portfolio.html","portfolio",300,200,"no","no","no","yes","no","no","no");
};

thank dog, i download the file "geturl" to read it, but my script is already set, can you teach me mix below:

var my_lv = new LoadVars();
my_lv.onLoad = function() {
trace(this.myLink);
my_link.htmlText = this.myLink;
};
my_lv.load("link.txt");

function myFunction() {

getURL("javascript:NewWindow=window.open('http://hk.movies.yahoo.com','newWin','width=350,height=30 0,left=0,top=0,toolbar=no,location=no,scrollbars=n o,status=no,resizable=no,fullscreen=no');NewWindow .focus(); void(0);")
}

______________________

the link.txt is " &myLink=<a href="asfunction:myFunction">yahoo movies</a> "
______________________

the "getURL" is link "link.txt", that inside is movies link list, that mean no any "on release/press" something action in the flash file

Nice Script doggy !!

[a_modified_dog]

var my_lv = new LoadVars();
my_lv.onLoad = function() {
trace(this.myLink);
my_link.htmlText = this.myLink;
};
my_lv.load("link.txt");

function myFunction() {
sUrl = "http://hk.movies.yahoo.com";
name = "newWin";
w=350; h= 300;
a ="no"; b ="no"; c ="no"; d ="no"; e ="no"; f ="no"; g ="no"; 
resx = System.capabilities.screenResolutionX;
resy = System.capabilities.screenResolutionY;
lft = resx/2 - w/2;
tp = resy/2 - h/2;
getURL("javascript:window.open('"+sUrl+"','"+name+
"','width="+w+",height="+h+",top="+tp+",left="+lft+
",directories="+a+",location="+b+",menubar="+c+
",resizable="+d+",status="+e+",toolbar="+f+
",scrollbars="+g+"');void(0);");
};

this hack will work
to make it re-usable, change the text file to -

&myLink=<a href="asfunction:myFunction,http://hk.movies.yahoo.com">yahoo movies</a>

and go to the function with -

function myFunction(param) {
sUrl = param;
...snip
...snip
};

what trouble specifically ??
syntax errors ??
failing to open the window when testing offline ??
(you must upload the html and swf to a server and test online)

[keith30]

sorry for not giving enough detail.

failing to open the window when testing offline

[a_modified_dog]

failing to open the window when testing offline

caused by new security rules for the Flash Player
you must upload and test online

[keith30]

Thanks for letting me know that.
Does the script have to be placed on the button or the keyframe?

Does this get placed on the instance of the button? "popUpBtn"

Can you explain "param,name,w,h,a,b,c,d,e,f,g"

Thank you for your help.

popUpBtn is the instance name of a button

param,name,w,h,a,b,c,d,e,f,g - these are the parameters passed to the function named openLink
