Have you read the comments on the blog post:

http://skovalyov.blogspot.com/2007/01/how-to-prevent-pop-up-blocking-in.html

allowScript access may need setting as an attribute when you embed Flash

You may need to specify a full URL

wmode may have an effect.

some more there too.

Turning on popup blocker shouldn't block user initiated clicks that call a
js function to open a new window. Or, popup blocker should allow for a
simple getURL("url", "_blank"). I'm finding these calls are being blocked
some cases in Firefox on PC's with flash player 9.

This is probably not what your client wants to hear but the question has to
be asked. Isn't Firefox popup blocker there for a reason? When blocking is
active there is a message when a popup is attempted. Users have the choice
to block or not, or to white-list your popups. I recommend allowing them
that choice.

Subject: [Flashcoders] Firefox popup blocker and flash 9

I'm having problems with Fireox blocking my popup windows. I've tried
everything I can think of. It seems to happen on Windows running Firefox but
I can't replicate the issue on all machines I've tested(it works on most
machines but not all).

Here is the class I'm using:

package {

    import flash.external.ExternalInterface;

    public class URLUtil    {

        protected static const WINDOW_OPEN_FUNCTION : String =
"window.open";

        public static function openWindow(url : String, window : String =
"_blank", features : String = "") : void {
            ExternalInterface.call(WINDOW_OPEN_FUNCTION, url, window,
features);
        }

    }

}


//being called this way
function recholder1Release(event:MouseEvent) {
    URLUtil.openWindow(res1link);
}


Any ideas?

TIA,

-D
