getURL _blank: scaling issues

I have the following in Flash 8

BriefLook_mc.btnStudentLife_mc.onRelease = function():Void
{
this.createEmptyMovieClip("craveLoader_mc", this.getNextHighestDepth());
this.craveLoader_mc.getURL("BWC_Crave.swf", "_blank");

}

This opens a new window for BWC_Crave.swf ...like I want. But the window scales depending on my current window sizing. If I make my window bigger or smaller, it sizes the flash movie in the window. I want it to be a static size. What am I doing wrong? My publish setting are set at 100% with "no scaling" set for both swf files.

When I publish the called swf file bwc_crave.swf, it works as intended. When I load this file with getURL, that is when the scaling issues arise. Any clues?

For clarification, do you want resizing the browser to grow the size of the stage, or should the stage stay the same size regardless? In the latter case, you can embed the swf in an html file.

I want the stage to remain the same size regardless of the browser window size. Otherwise, my text and graphics start looking wacky.
