I have to say to all... Thanks for all the response!! I have solved my problem using the first of Kerry's suggested methods and it works super!
It's not that I can't make my own windows or controls... I actually wanted to avoid it and since there is a choice setting the windowType with a toolbar I figured I could use that and capture its events. The problem really is very simple... I just want to be able to open a miaw that depending on conditions load a movie and content (also condition-depending) where the content is either a flash animation or a quicktime-movie. And I wanted the feel of a "web-popup-window". But hey... You helped me solve the problem. Many thanks and I will be back! //kristian > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of > Kerry Thompson > Sent: den 19 augusti 2003 21:01 > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: RE: <lingo-l> Projector vs. external cast - BUT MIAW... > > > > Ok, I see what you are saying.
