Regarding - "i don't even get a warning dialog box to ask me if i am sure i want to close the window " -- Don't know if this helps you - it's a way to notify the user that he's attempting to shut the browser window that is running the Flash app. (I used this approx 1-1/2 years ago - it still works under IE)
window.onbeforeunload = unloadAll; function unloadAll() { if (event.clientY < 0) { alert("You are now leaving the course."); } } -----Original Message----- From: Simon Turner [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, June 02, 2006 2:56 PM To: flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] browser will not quit!! Ok - i now have this as the coding within the flash file .... on (release, releaseOutside ) { this.gotoAndStop ('buttonUp'); getURL("javascript:window.close();"); fscommand("closeBrowserWindow", ""); } and i have some java in the html page like so ... <script type="text/JavaScript"> <!-- function myFlashMovie_DoFSCommand(command, args) { if (command == "closeBrowserWindow") { window.close(); } } //--> </script> but it still will not quit the browser!! - is there some kind of security that stops code from closing browsers in flash8 created files? - i don't even get a warning dialog box to ask me if i am sure i want to close the window ... i just cannot figure this out!
