Can I interact with JavaScript using ActionScript?

[DeltaJosh]

I have a splash page designed with Flash MX as an entrance to a website. It is displayed like any other normal HTML page in the browser. What I'd like to do is display the following page as a popup window with no scrollbars, no titlebar, and no menubar.
Ordinarily, I'd use a JavaScript function that manipulates the browser specific object, Window, to do this.

My question is:
Can I still create a JavaScript function to do this, then call that function from within my Flash movie using ActionScript?

If not, how else can I handle it?

Thank you for your time,
Josh

If JavaScript can do it you can have this function called from Flash:

One way to do it:
----------------------
Basically you create a url containing the javascript reference. Say a button initiates this action. Add in the button object actions window:

//code start
on(release)
{
url = "javascript:......etc";//use the same syntax as in HTML's HREF
getURL(url);//call the JScript function and your done
}
// code end

The JavaScript must be on the same page as your Flash movie

Another way to do it (not preferred):
----------------------------------------------

Use : fscommand(command, arguments)
command , argument are both strings send to the browser containing the flash movie.

Best regards
