Well, here's a quick and dirty code for this would be

getURL("URL", "_target");

however the real syntax is

getURL(url [, window [, "variables"]])

For furthur features you could use JavaScript

It works but we cannot set the window size with it .

Why make it complicated? Keep it simple:

make a button, and link it to a page containing a movie.

<a href="mymoviepage.htm"><img src="pictureofmybutton.jpg" /></a>

I agree, why not just link it to another page simple and easy.

Note: Just be sure that the movie is optimized so the download time will be fast.
