Cool, that looks perfect. Out of interest, will this handle more than 128 characters in a link? It seems to be truncated at that point regardless of the characters when I do a normal link?

Look at the following example, which demomstrates both techniques... ##asfunctionExample.mxml## <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?> <mx:Application width="800" height="600" xmlns:mx="http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml"; creationComplete="appInit()"> <mx:Script> <![CDATA[ function appInit() { _ta.htmlText = "Click <a href='javascript:window.open(\"http://www.macromedia.com\",null,\"height=600 ,width=800,status=yes,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no\");void(0);'><font color='#0000FF'><u>here</u></font></a> to open macromedia.com in a popup."; _ta1.htmlText = "Click <a href='asfunction:mx.core.Application.application.openLink,macromedia'><font color='#0000FF'><u>here</u></font></a> to open macromedia.com in a popup."; } function openLink(whichLink) { alert("Which Link:" + whichLink); var url:String; switch(whichLink) { case "macromedia": url = "http://www.macromedia.com";; } getURL('javascript:window.open("' + url + '",null,"height=600,width=800,status=yes,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no") ;void(0);'); } ]]> </mx:Script> <mx:Label fontSize="16" text="Usual way"/> <mx:TextArea id="_ta" width="300" height="200"/> <mx:Label fontSize="16" text="Better way using asfunction:"/> <mx:TextArea id="_ta1" width="300" height="200"/> </mx:Application> Couple of links on asfunction: - http://www.macromedia.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=tn_15639 - http://www.macromedia.com/support/flash/action_scripts/actionscript_dictiona ry/actionscript_dictionary073.html I just remember that someone wrote a very long tutorial on asfunction, recently some 2-3 months back it appeared on some blog...Just don't remember the URL... Anyways, I hope it helps you.... -abdul ________________________________ From: Anthony Merryfield [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, April 02, 2005 8:30 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [flexcoders] Javascript open.window in htmlText Hi everybody, Is there a way to open a popup from a link in htmlText?
