[Code]...
I was trying to make a popup window so I was just writing the code, published... and staring to nothing. I thought I made something wrong, so I checked the help and copied this piece of code from there (it's the code under MovieClip.createEmptyMovieClip()):
ActionScript Code:
var container:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("container", this.getNextHighestDepth());
var label:TextField = container.createTextField("label", 1, 0, 0, 150, 20);

There are several ways to do it.
One is to pull it out of the library the second is to place it on stage, set it visible = false via actionscript and set it visible = true when you click the button.[code]...
If i would place flash in a usual way, i could use wmode transparent.

Also on a page I have JS popup window. But when opened, it's under flash in iframe.

If I get rid of all AS in the swf and set alert as the document class, it shows up just fine, so I think it should be working, but for some reason I get this instead when I try the button function:

What is supposed to happen is that the popup should open in a new smaller window whilst the original window keeps displaying the flash file. Not sure what I'm doing wrong.

How should I open a popup window from a swf?My method - create another panel and overlay on the original swf.The problem is that the size of the original swf is small compared to the size of the popup window.No JS call allowed which does not allow me to use window.open javascript call.I need to be able to communicate with this popup window as well. This eliminates opening a new window using navigateToURL method.

I've done a lot of C# programming with both Winforms and WPF. I'm working on a Flex/Air app now for cross platform support. But this is my first flex project, so I'm learning as I go.

I set it up the same way I would've in C#, but it doesn't work, and I can't really see a way to make it do what I want.
