Flash Mx Problem (Very Basic)
Im having some difficulty with something very simple. Im using flash mx to build a web site. On this web site there are several instances of a button. On release, id like to use the get getUrl() function to open a new window with an image or audio example pertaining to the content of the site.cWhen i run the .fla or .swf from flash mx , the new window opens up fine. However, when i publish my file , and open it through the index.html, the new window opens but is blank. By blank i mean there is nothing but a system grey color Instead , the picture i wanted to open is loaded into the parent window. This is annoying because i now have to hit the back button everytime i click a button that is linked to an image or audio example on my site. When i click back , the entire flash movie reloads. Ive already tried playing with the parameters, _new, _blank, etc. Nothing seems to make any difference. Any ideas as to what it is i am doing wrong.

No idea why the target="_blank" shouldn't work.

this has always worked for me.

Code:
on (release) {
	getURL("mypic.jpg",  target="_blank");
}
