pop up windows

J

jnm

I want to open a "Help window" when I move the mouse over a certain area of
a graphics or a word. The window shall close again when I move the mouse
away.



The content of the Help window may be any text saved in a file. In my case I
want to explain certain words in a text.



I am not able to find the solution in FP2000 help




Regards

Spawn can be used to create popup window from a hotspot.

Spawn won't work with hotspots - and the site says that.

Actually it can't.
Note:
Spawn is not supported for pop-ups in image maps or photo galleries.

Image maps - is that not what "hot spots" are for?

Andrew, thanks for the correction.

I assumed because it wrote JavaScript, then it could be use to add popup links to image maps, which
can be done when handcoding with a JavaScript Popup window script.

There are a bunch of free JavaScripts at http://javascript.internet.com that
you can look at.

Hi Murray

Your suggestion does only solve my problem partly, as I want to open
the
window from hot spot in a graphic as well.

I had expected a way to use the "Show in new window" when defining the
target of your hyper link. I have seen, but cannot remember where, a
method
of defining the size of the Explorer window and the different
facilities to
be opened.

Thanks

Jorgen
