I'm dealing with a basic knowledge of the program and I just can't figure this out. I've placed a button on my site and want this button to open another flash movie in a separate window without browser info. I would like this window to be a different size than the website itself, essentially another flash movie. Any help would be great and thanks in advance. P.S. I also can't seem to get my site to play in a stand alone window it is always encompassed in the browser window when I test it. Thanks again.

Yes, the Yahoo example is what I am trying to do. But not just with a URL. I am creating a website for my advertising portfolio and would like my portfolio to open in a window like that, from my website. My portfolio is another flash movie, or I could convert it to a scene in my exisiting movie if I can learn how to open a scene in a seperate window. If you could explain how you did that I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

the explanation of the getURL action to control the browser window
is in the zipped file available at the link. Simply publish your movie,
(to produce the html ) and use this as the getURL target.

cut all content from the Scene and paste it into a movieclip.
you can then, either -
give it a Linkage identifier and use attachMovie ( see Help for details)
or
place it on stage, and set its _visible property to false to hide it,
set the property to true when required
or
place it well offstage, and position it to stage when required

Thank you so much for the help. I'm not much of an actionscript writer but I'll give it a try. Thanks again.
