FLASH: Open/Close Windows from WITHIN a FlashMovie?

[A.R.]

Hi there,

well, since i only got any reply from Bruce Altner saying

closing a window = self.close() - well, alright  i knew that ;-))

(THX Bruce) but that doesn�t help. To adress my problem again:


I have a frameset (that controls the outer width of all = fullscreen)

containing another frameset, wich holds the pages to show (centered

in the middle, held by the outer frameset).

The top frame (of the inner frameset) contains a Flashmovie (Fl3)

wich contains the Menu for the complete site.

Now, what i have to do is: open a new window from a button within the

Flashfile (i�ve done that with target=new) AND CLOSE the active window

(containing the swf.file sending the target command) as soon as

the new one has been opened.

My Problem is that i can�t get a script to work from Flash

(it seems NC4 doesnt get any Javascript-commands at all from the flashfile) - 

but how do i talk to NC4 from Flash? (How do i adress an external .js-file 

to flash??? GetURL ???)

Ive tried FSCommands but NC doesnt seem to react on it.

Apart from that i don�t know the possible FSCommands to realize this.


So pleaaasse, is there anyone to know if this is possible at all

and furthermore tell me HOW TO DO THAT???


You�ll save my day

Alex
