Open in new window?

[techgeek]

Hi,
I have a several movie files that I am adding to my swf projector. The problem is that I want them to open in a new window (i.e with the file menu, and min/maximum buttons as well as close). How should I go about doing this?

Also, if I want them to open in a new window in flash, what actionscript should I use. I am using the loadmovie script but it opens it in the SAME window and not in a new window:

on (release) {
loadMovie("movie.swf", "10");
}

Any help is appreciated,
Thanks :P

You can do that by using the "Form" object. First, add the following code into the "initialize" script in swfkit pro:

function openNewWindow(movie) {
var form = new Form();
form.movie = getAdditionalFile(movie);
form.showCaption = true;
form.canDrag = true;
form.caption = movie;
form.show();
}

and then call the function in actionscript

on (release) {
import flash.external.*;
ExternalInterface.call("openNewWindow", "movie.swf");
}

Hi,
Thanks for the help, that worked perfectly!

On a similiar note, how can I put an html page in its own window (w/o the use of opening in IE, Firefox) if i have all the files/images in the resource panel?

Thanks

on (release) {
import SWFKit.*;
Shell.open(Global.getAdditionalFile("my.html"));
}

Sorry for the late reply. I though that script was going to work but no luck.

At this point, I really do not care if the files open up in firefox or IE, I just want them to open. I am using this actionscript:

on (release) {
   getURL("Files/file1.html", "_blank");
}

This works perfect in flash but when I create the app via swfkit it does not work. Basically, the default brower is opened and the URL is "http://Files/file1.html" which does not return no results.

What is the best way to load an HTML file if I have all the files in the resources.

Thanks
