OK, I know the majority of you hate popup ads, BUT I need to create a Flash floating ad that appears after the page loads. The site I am using it on is primarily for members only and the purpose of the ad is to market a new program. Of course cookies would be used to avoid showing the ad only once.

Can anyone direct to a resourse that details how to create, 1) the JavaScript necessary to launch the Flash, 2) Instructions on how to eliminate the browser window in the Flash animation that pops up?

If you offer a similar service through your company or could possibly help out for a fee, send me a sticky and let me know.

Thanks!

Hmm, I thought the "flaoting" ads are done using dhtml, i.e. in a DIV that's mouse movable via JS, rather then in a new browser window.

DHTML is another option.

You can make the flash movie transpatent by changing the publishing options then use a javascript to pop it up.
