How do I open link in new window?

S

Scott

I am trying to create a hyperlink from a webpage to an
external page. The problem lies in the fact that the
external page is actually a Flash page which can only be
reached via a host piece of javascript.
The javascript creates a runtime error if copied straight
in to the browser address bar. Take the javascript code
away and the page I want actually opens - however, it's
the wrong size, it hasn't got any scroll bars and it
therefore falls off the screen.
Can I add some html code to resize the Flash pop-up
window? The link is below if you want to check it out.

If you mean you want to open it in a new browser window, when you create the
hyperlink click on TARGET in the bottom right-corner and choose New Window.
If you mean a pop-up window that you can control you need to use JavaScript.
See http://javascript.internet.com under Navigation, Pop Up Windows or try
J-Bots at www.websunlimited.com

Scott, don't know if this will help you or not but the Flash file is in a
frameset. The top frame is named 'swf.html' and the size of the embedded
flash file is set in the HTML of that page to 800 x 600. To resize the Flash
file, you would have to change the size of it in that page.
