    Default Is this possible: videos open in popup window?

    Is this possible, or the same basic idea? (I tried to put a youtube video in a pop up layer- and it worked- but I couldn't make it close.)

    http://www.ianandwendy.com/OtherTrip...aRica/#_videos

    Also (and not that important), I want to make a frog chirp with a mouseover- a jpeg of a frog play an audio clip when you mouseover it... (I tried pasting an wav into the pop up level- nope) could that be done with flash? I don't need it explained, but a definitive yes or no could help me figure it out or not bother. (I haven't gotten into flash yet.)

    Thanks

    Question 1.
    This is easy to do. Just add (lock) to the layer name then place a close object (graphic or text is fine) on that layer and in the link properties for that object enter popup:close

    Question 2:

    Yes

    I posted this in another thread some time ago.
    It's a mouse-over sound byte which uses a .wav converted to flash (.swf) but regular shapes on a mouseoff and popuplayer in Web Designer.

    DEMO

    Software used to convert wav to SWF is mentioned in Gary's workbook about adding sound

    I uploaded what I have so far to an old url:

    http://zapataskaraoke.110mb.com

    I'm a bit concerned about something- one of the jpegs on two pages has a button from the menu in it instead... strange, it works fine straight from the hard drive... at first I thought remnants of the first upload were interfering, so I erased everything and uploaded again, same thing.

    The frog croaks, and the video is on the turtle page- nothing's done past the Activities links

    Oh, I had another little issue: when you click a button on the nav bar the drop down menu no longer works for that page. I had to add a submenu item under activities ("So much to do!") to work around. I'd prefer to click Activities on the nav bar and still have the drop down function... am I missing something or have I already done the next best thing?

    Sorry but you are going off topic. If you need help with your website navigation bar, please start a new topic.
