Re: FLASH: Closing a new window within Flash

[Sarah Lamont]

Yeah... 


In general I think frames suck too, especially cause they usually look

so tacky...(in my Humble Opinion, of course), I was just using them to

fill the screen with the swf without the border around the edge (Colin

Mook's tutorial...http://www.moock.org/webdesign/flash/index.html) 

But, I suppose I may have to forfeit that detail if I want to be able to

close the window, which I just tried without the frames and it worked. So....?

If anyone _does_ know how to close a popup window containing frames, I'd

love any insight.

thanks!
