Author Few quick issues with a current site... explained in
The Blueprint

It's easiest if I explain the work setup and then link you to the site so you
can see exactly what I'm trying to point out...

First i'm not the Flash pro on this project, but I know enought to get around.
Our main coder isn't around that much and he's hard as hell to get ahold of..
he may be dead for all I know. :P

But anyway, the site is www.h0w0rld.com

Now i'll outline the major issues i'm trying to solve.

<b>1</b> - I can't get the photo page to pop up into a new window after it
launches from the main sites .swf file. It just loads over the site... which
really sucks because you then have to go back and the main .swf has to reload
again. This is the coding I have in the final frame for photos right now:

<blockquote>quote:<br><hr>
screenX = System.capabilities.screenResolutionX;
screenY = System.capabilities.screenResolutionY;
screenW = 700;
screenH = 500;
screenT = ((screenY-screenH)/2);
screenL = ((screenX-screenW)/2);
url = "<a target=_blank class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge
href="http://www.h0w0rld.com/fig/";
">http://www.h0w0rld.com/fig/";
</a>
getURL("java script:NewWindow=window.open('"+url+"','windowname','width="+screenW
+",height="+screenH+",top="+screenT+",left="+screenL+",toolbar=No,location=No,sc
rollbars=No,status=No,resizable=No,fullscreen=No');NewWindow.focus();void(0);");
<hr></blockquote>

<b>2</b> - On some computers (especially public computers i've noticed), you
cannot see text on the site. You visit the homepage and you can see the same
image, but the enter sign doesn't appear. You can even still click it and the
site will launch.. but nothing with show up. Any ideas as to what's up here
would be excellent...

<b>3</b> - I can't find a way to name the pop up windows. They just show the
main URL and the file it loaded... i'd like to find a way to put a name for the
browser window like in an HTML file.

<b>4</b> - If you view the biography section, everything seems to lag. Even
scrolling over a nav menu item will show you it's really slow. I can't figure
out what's wrong...

Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks.
