Re: FLASH: Multiple Popup Windows

[Randy Kato]

Diana,


You can make a different function for each button, and name them something like

popupwindow1, popupwindow2, etc. In your Get URL, just call the one you want.


In your HTML you'll copy and paste the function, including the curly brackets and

everything in between, until you have one for each button. Rename them as

described above. Then replace "colour.html" with whatever page should open for

each function.


Now what you'll need to do is to fill in a name for each popup window. The ""

after "colour.html" is where your window name goes, so fill that in with a unique

name for each popup, like popup1, popup2, etc.


HTH,

Randy
