Cool Pop Up WIndow

[Johnny Shiro]

I found a very cool flash site that was featured here on flashkit,but i don't remember which one !

Well here is the mystery:

At the site when you pushed "ENTER" the flash site itself opened like a window...without the normal window explorer buttons and the edges around. It was 100% changed !!

Did the author, use a transparent flash movie? if so doesn't transparent movies only work if it is in a webpage ?

I really hope someone can help me with this, because it was truly amazing to watch ...

If you want to have this you have to add a javascript to your page, check the tutorials at this page it tells you exactly how to do it, and about that sit I really don't know the adress...


Hope I helped ya,

nah ... in most probabilities he used a customized Java Script window ... by using javascript it is pssible to do away with the normal browser menubars, scrollbars etc .

Thanks for your help. I will try that until it works. I have another need that I am sure you can help with. Can you please tell me where to get step by step directions for morons on how to make the scroll bar that I saw at Kirupa.com in the example?

thanks,

If you mean the blue browser scrollbars:

Put this in the HEAD of your HTML doc:

<STYLE type="text/css">
<!--
BODY {
scrollbar-face-color: 000000;
scrollbar-highlight-color: 000000;
scrollbar-3dlight-color: 000000;
scrollbar-darkshadow-color: 000000;
scrollbar-shadow-color: 000000;
scrollbar-arrow-color: 000000;
scrollbar-track-color: 000000;
}
-->
</STYLE>

Change the Hex colors to suit your needs !!

I really appreciate for all the help you have given me.

It was actually javascript..

I found the site again, so here it is:

http://www.inflex.org

There are wonders that you can do with Javascript and Cascading Styles sheets to customize the browser !!
But the problem lies in the other half ... the visitor of your site may not have the latest version of the Browsers , or some effects may not work the same way on different browsers ... as for example the Chromeless windows , as provided above in Kirupa.com ... doesn't totally do away with the Netscape Header
The inflex.org is one cool site ... however this Grey /White combination is becoming too common nowadays

[philjayhan]

Hey that Inflex.org site is awesome! Wow! Someday I can only hope....But in the meantime, can anyone be kind enough to post step by step directions for Idiots on how to make the Netscrape and Exblorer browsers disappear and have your site take up the whole area of the screen? This would be very helpful to me. Remember to not leave out any steps as I am a 'Flashhopper'

Flashoopingly yours,

[Johnny Shiro]

Yeah i guess you are right... White and grey is used by everyone these days, who claim they design websites for tomorrow. It is really bad though, since i personally like the color matching between white and grey... it looks so slick and smooth ! But i can't return to the dark age either... hmmm....what am i to do....?

New design concept i need to think out .mmmmmm yes i will...


Powerful i will be mmmmmmmm.....yes mmmmmm

[philjayhan]

I had some of the same problems trying to figure out soemthing somewhat new or different, yet not dark, and not white and grey. I am simply trying to mimick a browser and with some success its coming along. If you visit remember this site is under construction and not a lot is operational but let me know if you all like the look or not. It's located at; http://user.mc.net/~dschultz/ Its going to be a healthcare site.

Thanks,
phil
