[SWFObject] Trouble opening new browser windows

[skala manda]

Um Geoff,

Your remark but i'm not sure why using swfobject would make a difference is a very valid comment.

This is the only mailing list I am subscribed to, and I have the unfortunate habit of trying to help people out without keeping the focus on SWFobject.

Has there ever been an intiative to start up a forum dedicated to this issue? There would be the advantage of having searchable archives ( not sure if that's a featureof this current method of ommunication ) and the ability to move topics from a SWFobject specific section to a non-SWFobject specific section?

I was thinking maybe a phpBB, I could host it and help with moderation duties if there is enough interest. 

regards,

Richard

i'm thinking it was a popup blocker issue - but i'm not sure why using swfobject would make a difference...�


but if it is an issue, i'd like to know the fix for it for future reference...


also: were you testing your movie locally? or on a server? what browser?

Hi Andrew, 
 
 Try http://www................/mph06.htm instead of just mph06.htm.
 
 ( I may be way of base, but it's worth a try, I seem to remember relative as opposed to absolute url's causing trouble in the past )
 
 success,

 The JavaScript I used pre SWFObject doesn’t seem to work now:

 I’ve got this in the head:
 
 �
 
 <script language="JavaScript"> 
 
 function openNewWindow(URLtoOpen, windowName, windowFeatures) {
 
 newWindow=window.open(URLtoOpen, windowName, windowFeatures); }
 
 </script>

 And this on the button:
 
 �
 
 on (release) {
 
 getURL("javascript:openNewWindow('mph06.htm','MPH06','height=425,width=567,toolbar=no,scrollbars=no')");
 
 }

 And that used to work for me, but doesn’t do a thing now L
