Hi,
Recently began playing around with the skins function and I am stuck. :?

I added some images to link to other movie pages, but when an images is clicked for the first time the page opens in a new tab in Firefox or with IE in a new window. Subsequent clicks on the image links and the links behave as I wanted (same tab and same window). What am I doing wrong? Also, if running a movie in full screen mode, clicking the image links works, but reverts to normal screen mode? Why is this? Oh and if anyone has some tips on adding a formatted text description? I am struggling there too. So I would be most grateful :D

Apart from that: I am very impressed with the skins function, which I only found out about after unsuccessfully trying to get flash panorama player to work and here it was sitting in my computer all the time :lol:

Ped

P.S. Maybe a link would help: http://panocorner.com/flash/index.html

You need to specify a proper special target like "_blank" to always open a new window. The supported targets are (from Adobe live doc):
  • "_self" specifies the current frame in the current window.
  • "_blank" specifies a new window.
  • "_parent" specifies the parent of the current frame.
  • "_top" specifies the top-level frame in the current window.
Also, if running a movie in full screen mode, clicking the image links works, but reverts to normal screen mode? Why is this?
This is a security feature of Flash. No way around it (yet).
Oh and if anyone has some tips on adding a formatted text description? I am struggling there too. So I would be most grateful :D
