Viewing Flash Ng Style

[Moosh]

I have a free web page from geocities and I was wondering how to put your flash games/movies on it for viewing NG Style. What i meant is like pressing a button and a little pop-up appears and plays the flash. I tried uploadin the swf and just linking to it but the swf grows to the browser size and it screws up the "feeling"

I posted this earlier in a different forum but j00bie recommended that i shud post it here. Hope you guys dont get mad!!

I think he means that he wants to link to a submission without the window going to a different size.

Just include this script in the head.
<script language="Javascript">
//define your function!
function popup() {
window.open("u_r_l_here" "my_new_window"
//define window charactoristics
//type yes if you want the char. no if not, e.g.
menubar=no, scrollbars=no, copyhistory=no,
//then make the size
width=550, height=400")
}
</script>

then if you want to bring up the window through a link like this
[a href="javascript:popup()"]Flash[/a]
replace [ ] with < >
thats about it,
very common question

If you don't want to make a separate page for each flash just use the url of that movie.
http://domain.com/file.swf

Well later on you might see that you have a lot of flash and you want to store their links all on a seperate page and just refer to that page whenever you need one. It's the way to go if you don't have a database setup.

um i had the same question and im still haveing trouble with theis
areas...
window.open("u_r_l_here" "my_new_window"
and...
[a href="javascript:popup()"]Flash[/a]

the underlined part... you see i have no clue when it comes to javascript and i was wondering if anyone could explain further into the underlined areas.

what does the my_new_window mean is it the target like _blank, or _self ore what. and where would i put the url of the js page in there.
also should it be a js page or a html?

Would that work, just putting that script in the html file? Like, you dont have to upload any class files or anything like that? Sorry for being a n00b but I'm gonna be making like an animation portfolio site sometime in the near future, and I dont know a damn thing about Java
