Flash open pop-up window
Hi,
I need some code for my flash book that is on the web, to open a pop-up window. The pop-up window needs to sit in front of the current window and be smaller in size. There will be a button in the flash book that would trigger this. Also- it is very important that the pop-up does not get blocked by any browser, just as it doesn't get blocked in html when the pop-up is executed as a direct result of human interaction.
Thank you.

Are you sure you actually need a browser window? You could add a MovieClip instance on top of your book app. Pop-up blockers wouldn't block it, and it would of course be smaller than the window in which it resides.

I have tried using a movie clip on top of the book but found that the flash player kept on crashing- there was too much flash content.

I don't think your problem is directly related to adding a small movieclip to the displaylist.
It sounds like you might be adding the entire book to the displaylist, which could result in memory issues and stability problems if the book has a lot of pages, text, vector objects, bitmaps, etc...
How is the book project structured?
ie: is it a movieclip with 300 frames, with images and textfields on each frame?
What is the compiled swf filesize?

It is a flip book i purchased on activeden which is a swf with 300kb file size. It can contain swf's or various image formats. I generally have problems when using many swf's for the pages, and i therefore use .png's instead. I don't have any problems with these formats, as long as i stick to 1000 pages or less. I have no problems using .png for the text and images i would like to show but when it comes to the animations, i obviously need to use swf's and that's when i start experiencing problems. When i open pop-up windows using JS inside the xml file, it works well but gets blocked by one of the browsers. The browser is a popular one and i therefore have to find a solution.

Do you have access to the code used in your template/swf file?
I'd like to see how all of these png files are loaded.
