RE: FLASH:Targeting opener from flash..

>>page in the opener window.



I struggled with this for a bit and finally nailed it.


Here is the deal:


In the head of the HTML doc, I put together this bit of script:


     <script language="JavaScript">

     function targetWin(url) {

          window.opener.location=(url);

     }

     </script>


In the Get URL pass the URL to the function like this:


     On (Release)

          Get URL ("javascript:targetWin('http://www.yoursitehere.com');")

     End On


This should take care of it. Tested in both IE and NS. Good luck!!

I have a page that when it loads it loads a smal pop up

idow( window.open......) that contains a small flash navigation tool. I want

when a button is clicked in the navigator for it to load the appropriate

page in the opener window. It does that. The only problem I am running into

is that when I use the GetURL to do that the window that my flash movie was

in now only displays the text "http://www.whatever-url-i-tell-it.com" .


Any tips? Thanks.
