RE: FLASH: RE: Targeting parent window - still stuck

[Eric Dunham]

Hrm,

That should work... it worked fine for me, but then again, I didn't do it in

Flash, I just did a quick and dirty JS test.

It actually should work in multiple ways...

I know that you can do:

window.opener.location = "URL"; or

window.opener.location.href = "URL";


You might want to try embedding those commands into a small function that

you call from the Flash movie or something,

but other than that, I don't really know why it's not working...?

If you could post the code, that might also be of some help.


HTH,

Eric Dunham

Thanks Eric.  It does work, however the "www.your-url.here" is appearing in

the

child window containing the Flash movie.  Can you offer any more help with

this,

or can anyone else?
