Flash Pop Up Issues

[rmccam]

Hi everyone,

I just tried to create centered pop up windows but I'm having a couple issues.

Here's my code for the button that launches the pop up...


on (release) {
//customize the window that gets opened
// 0 equals NO.
// 1 equals YES.
address = "recoverymailing.html";
target_winName = "mailinglist";
width = 300;
height = 200;
toolbar = 0;
location = 0;
directories = 0;
status = 0;
menubar = 0;
scrollbars = 0;
resizable = 0;
//sends data back to the function
openWinCentre(address, target_winName, width, height, toolbar, location, directories, status, menubar, scrollbars, resizable);
}


Here's my code for the global actions


_root.openWinCentre = function (url, winName, w, h, toolbar, location, directories, status, menubar, scrollbars, resizable) {
getURL ("javascript:var myWin; if(!myWin || myWin.closed){myWin = window.open('" + url + "','" + winName + "','" + "width=" + w + ",height=" + h + ",toolbar=" + toolbar + ",location=" + location + ",directories=" + directories + ",status=" + status + ",menubar=" + menubar + ",scrollbars=" + scrollbars + ",resizable=" + resizable + ",top='+((screen.height/2)-(" + h/2 + "))+',left='+((screen.width/2)-(" + w/2 + "))+'" + "')}else{myWin.focus();};void(0);");
}


Everything is working fine except...

1) When you click on the button to open the pop up, it opens both a new blank window and the pop up window. How do I get rid of the blank window so only the pop up opens over the window with the button?

2) The pop up doesn't actually display the HTML file that I want it to... it's just blank. They are in the same directory and the HTML file works on its own so... ????? Does it have to actually be on a server or something? Shouldn't I be able to just test it from my computer?

Any help would be appreciated!!

Thanks!!!
