I have created a series of images and am hyperlinking them to open a popup window in order to play my flash video tutorials. 

It has worked great!   However, I just now noticed that the web address location of where I am storing the flash videos (a different server) is visible...and I need that to be nonvisible.

When I open up the edit hyperlink link, I then select the 'target' tab.   However, I have not checked any of the boxes so I don't understand why I can still see the web address.

Any ideas?

Thank you so much for your help!

Which module are you using to do this?

I am using the text/html module.   Within this module I have content that describes the online video course.   Then underneath I have inserted a table for a cleaner look for each of the video module images in the left column and in the right column a description of that particular module.

Then, I just highlighted each of the images and selected the hyperlink button.  From there, I entered in the http web address and chose the 'popup' option.    But like I said, it works great!   Only problem is the viewer can also see the address.

Look at the contents of the HTML module in Source mode to see the actual code.  It uses a call to window.open.  You can edit the source html if you need to customize it.

Joe,

Here is a sample of the code based on what you referred to:

 

onclick="window.open(this.href,'','resizable=no,location=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=no,status=no,toolbar=no,fullscreen=no,dependent=no,width=820,height=653,status'); return false" href="http://mysite.com/xxx/xxx/xxx.html">< img height="52" alt="" width="225" border="0" src="https://www.dnncreative.com/Portals/6/sa-course/viewmodule1.jpg" />

I assume that you want the address bar to be invisible.  Is that correct?

I haven't been able to turn off the location with location=no or the status bar with status=no.  I don't know if that is an error or not ...

yes you are correct about the address bar!

So is that what I should try?

I'm not sure.  I have not been able to make it disappear.

Joe,

Thank you so much for trying!  If you do figure out the solution please let me know!

Is there another suggestion or forum where I may look as well?

thanks!

This seems to be a configuration setting in Firefox.  Not sure about IE.  But ... it seems that the bottom line is ... you can't do it.

An alternative might be to pop up a site in an iframe using something like Live Content.  Since that happens on the server, you will have lots of control.
