Hi again.
I have a question regarding the chromeless window tutorial and the positioning of the 'javascript' on the flash movies HTML page.

I have absolutely no learning in actionscript,(yet) and therefore get more than confused when trying put these little effects together.

The tutorial says that the script should be placed in the HTML page created by the MC.
I therefore assume that this page should be used in the final website and NOT a new HTML page with the swf. file imported to it.

I use dreamweaver to create my stuff and when I have tried to use the original Flash HTML file on a site I am making, it has created problems for me.
I assume the problem to be caused by the fact that I had originally created an independent HTML file and imported the swf. file into it.

Anyway, irrespective of that, the main problem is with the actual link. When I have tested the chromeless window link it has opened as a new browser window, complete with toolbars and everything else.

I placed the 'javascript' where the tutorial told me to, (after the 'HEAD' text) which placed it above the 'TITLE' text.

Is this right? If so, where am I going wrong?

If it's not right can someone start me on the right path.
All help greatly appreciated.

the script should go anywhere between the HEAD tags on the page which launches the full screen window (not that page which IS full screen). assuming you do this correctly it should work fine.
