I need some help/info - These new pop-up's (well sort of new) that are now being used by major marketing agencies - The one's that sit on top of an entire web site then quickly fade away or that you have to chose a graphic "X."

Does anyone know how this is done and/or with what technology besides the fact the animation is Flash?

I'm not trying to create annoying pop-ups here, I have had a request to put them on a site that promote the same site.

Anything will help...thanks!

Never done it but i'm pretty sure it's just a basic pop window with a transparent flash movie in it.

I don't think they work in all browsers, I recall that not all browsers support the transparent windows in flash. You might want to look into that if you care about users who use other browsers.
