Controlling the opening of a browser window w/Actionscript

[pampam]

Is there way to insert code that will control the opening of a browser window within Flash using Actionscript?

In Javascript, it would look something like this:

window.open theURL,winName,"width=480,height=480,status=no,scr ollbars=no,res
izable=no,menubar=no");

Thanks in advance for your help!

Use getURL to call your javascript code, and return void to keep from opening a new window:

code:

---

getURL('javascript:myJSFunction(); void(0)');

---

Edit: Why does the PHP put a space in between java and script????

Isn't there a way to do this right in the getURL code?

Put the code in where my example has a function call. Of course, this won't work in test mode, only in a JS browser.

So, something like this?

getURL('java script:window.open theURL,winName,"width=480,height=480,status=no,scr ollbars=no,res
izable=no,menubar=no")');

Approximately like that. You seem to have more right parentheses than left ones, and keeping the various levels of quotes stright is always a pain. But that general approach will work., as this simple working example illustrates:

code:

---

myButton.onRelease = function() {

	getURL('javascript:window.alert("Sent from Flash"); void(0);', "_self");

}
