Help: Problem with popup window in Flash

[buckmajor]

Dear Community,

I humbly ask of your assistent in solving a problem with my thumbnail buttons in flash that wont open up all popup window for 3 different on(release) handlers. I have a couple tutorials which works on one button but when I try to use the other 3 buttons they somehow open the same popup window even if the script I used seems to be right (I hope )

Here is a full detail of how I have built my flash movie for my portfolio.

- Flash movie called port.swf is loaded on (home.html) page when the user clicks on portfolio button and on portfolio movie there is 4 thumbnail buttons which I want all buttons to link to a different popup window. Click on link and then portfolio to preview the 4 thumbnail buttons test

- My actionscript on each button for the thumbnail 1 starting from the left, is....

Code: Select all

on (release) {
getURL("javascript:popup('3D.html','thewin','height=350,width=425,toolbar=no,scrollbars=no');");
}

and the script code is used in home.html....

Code: Select all

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
function popup() {
window.open('3D.html','','toolbar=no,location=no,directories=no,status=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,width=425,height=350,left=0,top=0');
}
</script>

and the script code is used in 3D.html....

Code: Select all

<script language="JavaScript">
function openNewWindow(URLtoOpen, windowName, windowFeatures) {
newWindow=window.open(URLtoOpen, windowName, windowFeatures);
}
</script>

If you want, you can view the source which there is not much coding to the html page to find out the problem.

Many thanks in advance

It should be as easy as this:

Code: Select all

<script language="JavaScript" type="text/JavaScript">
<!--
function openBrWindow(theURL,winName,features) {
  window.open(theURL,winName,features);
}
//-->
</script>

Code: Select all

on (release) {
getURL ("javascript:openBrWindow('http://home.com,'newWin','width=400,height=300,left=200,top=200,toolbar=No,location=No,scrollbars=Yes,status=No,resizable=Yes,fullscreen=No');  void(0);");
}

Thanks for your input spar11 .

I noticed the difference between the 2 script and html code then the one I used.
In <!--openBrWindow--!> does Br means Browser?

Code: Select all

 
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/JavaScript">
<!--
function openBrWindow(theURL,winName,features) {
  window.open(theURL,winName,features);
}
//-->
</script>

Morning,

Yeah, although that doesn't really matter. That is just the name of the function that I created. It could be any name really...
