[abigaile]

Hi,

Does somebody now how to open a JPG in an new Browser window, the command given by Flash?

I don't know if this is possible. I wan't to give the visiter two options.
1. View an external image in a mask in Flash...(this is no problem)
2 View the same (complete size) image in a new broswer window.

Thanks for any help.

You need to use JavaScript in the html:


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


Then call the JavaScript with the getURL function of actionscript:

on(release){
getURL ("javascript:MM_openBrWindow('thepage.html','','wi dth=700,height=393,resizable=no,scrollbars=no,menu bar=no')");
}

hi dudes,

Its very simple....all that you need is to display a image in a seperat browser...

geturl("XXX.jpg",_blank);

Will that not do......its simple isn't

That'll work but, no offence, but that's quite a lazy way and untidy way of doing it. You have no control over the size of the new window.

Tnx both for replying guys...I prefer the method of Gnana, because I have lots of images to display and I haven't much courage to make a separate html page for each image...

Buth with Gnana's method, I have another problem...Is it possible in Flash not to display the title bar of the newly opened window?

Tnx for help,

Yvan.

hi dude,

all that you got to do is write a function in the same html page in javascript and call the function with the image name as the parameter...it will open a window with all your needs.....see collinmoock.org for tutorial...its given there.
