Hello,
Brief, I have af ramed-based page with a flash animation as part of one of those frames content.

When I click on a button in that animation, I want a new "Pop-up-type" of window to open. Everything is working fine eXCEPT that when I close that new window and get back to my frame-baes page, I have nothing in the frame where animation used to be but only have the following wriiten on the bogus page

[object]

Here's the code in the button calling the pop-up:

************************************************** ***********
on (release) {
    stop();

    getURL("javascript:window.open('media/people.html','People','width=800,height=600,direct ories=no,location=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=no,stat us=no,toolbar=no,resizable=yes');");
}


************************************************** ***********
Any help is always appreciated,
Thanks to all,

nancy

Nevermind, it was simply to re-order these in the scene panel,
Please disregard.
Thanks anyway.

Hi Nancy,

Hoe did you get it right to get the [object] away on the

on(release){
getURL("javascript:window.open('support.htm','URL' ,'width=600,height=600,directories=no,location=no, menubar=no,scrollbars=no,status=no,toolbar=no,resi zable=no');");}

?

I am getting the same problem.

Yvette

Hi Yvette,
I don't understand your question. Please explain what you would like to do and the problem you're experiencing.
It might not be the same as the problem I was having, so please elaborate.
Thanks,

nancy

Here it is - sorry:

When I use the flash button with the javascript pop-up code - the pop up window comes up perfectly but the htm page in the background dissappears and all that is displayed on it is: [object]. Then, when I close the pop-up window I have to press the "back" button to go back to my website.

Thanx, Yvette

Hi Nancy,

Are you online? Did you get my message?

Thanx,
Yvette

Fixed the probem - never mind.

Thanx anyway
Yvette

How did you fix it? I have been having the same problem. Mine works on Apple side but leaves the [object] on the PC side.

Here is my code:
<A HREF="javascript:window.open('preview_images.asp', 'Portfolio','width=520,height=400,resizable=yes,sc rollbars=yes,status=no,screenx=100,screeny=20'); return false">Open Link</A>

Peace

Hello, while it has been awhile I have been back into that file, I did notice one difference between the code listed above and mine:

on (release) {
    stop();

I have "stop()" before calling the Pop-up.
I hope this helps,
nancy

The reason [object] appears is that the window.open function return a result to the browser. You do not want that in this case - you just want the javascript to run and open a new window. So, you must specify that the function should be void (i.e. does not return a result):

getURL("javascript:void window.open('mywindow.html')");

And voilla!
