It may be... I was just looking around the web to see and the only thing I
could find (another person having a problem with it) was that they apparently
had to use a complete path for the URL rather than just naming the html file.
Unfortunately, the solution wasn't clearly stated, so I'm guessing... assuming
you know how to code a button, you'd use:

getURL("http://www.whatever.com/homepage.html", "frame2");

Let us know if it works. You're the third person I've seen asking this and I
don't think any pf the others got a solution.

thanks for that now i got 1 part working. i can open up the web page but not in
the right frame... im working on trying to get the correct frame open cause no
matter what i type it always opens up in a new window

but yer, the url you type in is relative to where the flash file is on the
site. i can put up with that for my site but if you find out how to make the
address 'absolute' it would be helpful for the future

lets see if i can figure out how to get this opening in the correct frame
