Open a web page in the browser using flash

Am using this AS 2.0 Code on a button in flash CS3 : on(press, release) { getURL("http://somethinghere...","_top"); }

unfortunately, it doesnt work.

However, when i Ctrl+Enter in flash and click the button, it开发者_开发知识库 does.

it doesnt work after embedding the SWF movie in the webpage/browser. any ideas?

is the the Flash player vs the browsers player?

I've experienced to have 3 different versions of Flashplayer running while developing.

I dont have CS3 anymore, so I cant reproduce your problem I am afraid, but check if you might have more than one version of the player installed (there might be an old one in your CS3 folders)

Secondly, what happens if you embed it in a HTML file? is it the same experience on harddrive as online?
