FLASH: Too simple to be true!

[Bill Bogan]

Hello all,


Using a button in Flash 4 or 5, when I target an open named browser window 

("main") using get URL and the open named window, instead of replacing the 

content of the named window, it opens a new window in IE (works fine in 

Netscape).


Just to make sure I'm not crazy, create a button in Flash 4 or 5 that does 

a get URL and targets a window named "main".  After you publish the movie, 

the first time the button is clicked a browser should open.  When the 

button is clicked again, it should replace what the content in the browser 

that just opened, *NOT* open another browser instance.  In IE (5.0/5.5 for 

me), it opens a new browser instance every time the button is clicked.  In 

Netscape it works correctly.


Below is an example of the Action Script I am using:


On (Release)

       Get URL ("http://www.macromedia.com", window="main")

End On


This can't be happening to just me!  Please help.


Bill
