Hi,

I have the following code

<a href=" target="_blank">
<object width="300" height="250">
<param name="movie" value="AssociatedObjects/MPU/xxx_v2.swf" />
<embed src="AssociatedObjects/MPU/xxx_v2.swf" width="300" height="250"></embed>
</object>
</a>

The problem is when I view and click the object, it doesnot open in a new window, even with target='_blank'...?

Thanks in advance
 
This does not really work the way you want it to. Flash object resides above the page and all clicks on the flash object are handled by the flash rather than the element beneath it. If you wish that clicking flash element opens a new window and points to a url, then you have to program that functionality into the flash file.
