I am desinging my online portfolio in Flash (MX). There are 3
categories, Print, Web, and Resume. Under the "Web" section, for a
client I created a
.swf movie, size 375x315.

So, to show this in motion, versus, a static storyboard, I have a
button that says, "click to view in flash".  So I want a separate
window to come up that show this movie in the exact size of 375x315.

I've done a quick research last night and it seems like this is the
most common question about Flash but too many different solutions out
there for me to narrow it down.

Thanks for you help.

In the Button Actions menu in Flash:
on (release) {
getURL("javascript:spawnWindow('http://myurl.com','mywindownamehere','width=375,height=315,screenX=100,screenY=100,top=100,left=100');");
}

Change the height and width to suit.

In your HTML document's header:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">                
<!-- 
function spawnWindow(url,name,features) { 
    window.open(url,name,features);
} 
//--> 
</script>

And you're good to go!

HiSeth,

Sorry I didn't get a chance to do this until now.

I'm a bit lost with your instructions, perhaps you can clarify.

Where do I add,(see below) I mean which document and where is Button
Action? In the Actions window, there are Actions, Operator, Functions,
Constants, etc what action do I add?

Thanks.

Seth,

Ignore the previous comment. I know what you mean. So I did add the
action to the button. In the aciton where you say
"'...mywindownamehere',..." Is this where I put in the file name that
will open in the pop up window, for example "filename.swf"?

Also, I added (below) in the button's html doc. It doesn't open an pop
up window with my swf movie playing. So my question is, where do I add
the name of my swf file that is opening in the pop up window. Do I
replace any of these names "...(url,name,features)..."

In your HTML document's header:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">                
<!-- 
function spawnWindow(url,name,features) { 
    window.open(url,name,features);
} 
//--> 
</script>

thanks.
