Pop-up , Drop down, slide left, slide right ...

Hey folks,

I have a question about those sometimes annoying flash pop-ups that cover whatever you're reading or looking at on a plain html page. Though, as annoying as they are, I'm curious as to how it's done through either tags or actionscripting or whatever. I've started noticing these things pop up over the last few months. Gracious authors offer a "close" button.

Thanks-
Wayne

With IE 5.5, there were some new additions that allowed that kind of thing. Here's a link to some info about it.
