I would like to know, which would be the better way to open a new window from an AS3 application, and send some information to the new window. By the moment I have a PHP that generates an xml, but I don't think that is the better way, I would like to know the opinion of a master?

I work with 3d animation. Im have a problem with a personal website Im doing, I have a link in a button inside a flash movie to open a new window and play a youtube movie:
on (release) {
var jscommand:String = "window.open('http://www.youtube.com/v/b0L4XLODhAA&hl=en&fs=1&','win','height=344,width=4 25,toolbar=no,scrollbars=yes');"; getURL("javascript:" + jscommand + " void(0);");
}
This works fine in Firefox but in IE it doesnt work, I then change the /v/ in the youtube link with /p.swf?video_id= and now I have the window open showing the small youtube thumbnail of my video but once a click play, nothing happens, I check it and is not loading anything.

In Flex Air app, how do you open a window behind an active one?
I tried following and i can't seem to get it to work
[Code]...
With this code, I would expect window1 to open behind the main app window and, in 3 seconds, window2 would open behind window1. But if you execute this, window1 will open on top of the main window and window2 will open on top of window1 and the main app will retain focus. This seems like a bug in the Flex. If so is there any workaround for this problem?
I have a Flash form sending variables to an ASP script (bono.asp) in order to print a discount bonus. The bonus grafic is then shown in a new window for the user to print with his/her data on it. (name, address, etc). Well, the problem is that it not only opens a new window with the bonus (without the data ), it also opens the bonus in the current window (with the data), forcing the user to "go back" to the flash website and loading the entire animation again. This is the code in the Flash form asociated to the Button:

Yesterday phtrivier showed me how to send an array to a new/sub-window.Now I have replaced this static source of data with an XML file that loads into an ArrayCollection.Unfortunately I found an ArrayCollection behaves differently than an Array when you try to send a part of it to a new/sub-window.How can I do this with the ArrayCollection?Or should I take the easy road with sending an Array and instead look for a way to make the XML load into an Array instead of an ArrayCollection? I don't think I will require the extra features an AC offers.

View 2 RepliesI have a .swf I want my users to be able to open, but without opening a new window.
I'm sure you all have seen this effect. In a photo gallery, the user clicks a thumbnail, the screen darkens, a white box resizes to the size of the larger image and the full-size image loads...all without opening a new window. I'd like to do the same with a .swf.

View 1 RepliesI have a flash slide on my site. The slide has next and previous buttons to either move to the next slide or the previous slide. Each slide is only an image. When you click a particular image it takes you to the page specific to the image you clicked.
My issue is this: When you click the image, it opens the page in a new window. I would like to have the window open in the same window, but having issues figuring out how to do it.
The flash is controled by an image.xml script. I've added target= "_blank" to the xml, but the URLs are still opening in a seperate window. I didnt create the flash, is it possible the issues lies within the .fla file?
