    pre determined window size

    Hello Ok, I can click on a link and make it open up a new movie in a new window. Thats easy, but how do I make that window open up in a pre determined size / exactly the size I make the movie frame? for example, a very small window that contains some information? Thanks in advance koolmoves genius'

    Always keeping in mind of course that your pop ups are going to be blocked by XP SP2 users amongst others.

    Oh yeh, thanks gusmus.... Ok, any ideas on how you can click on a button, and a window opens up inside the movie? Without creating another frame.

    Inside of a flash movie you can NOT open windows.
    But you can emulate a new window using child-movies (the first keyframe is empty and has the stop(); action).
    In the second keyframe you may load (for example) some external content (text,image,etc).
    If the child movieclip is called myWin the script for the button is:
    on(release){myWin.gotoAndPlay(2);}
