Ok Heres my problem, I'm making a flash movie. the frames are over 1000, at the end of the movie. I have a &quot;stop&quot; action it works. I also have a start over button &quot;Go to&quot; action it works too. Also on the same frame I have a LOGO button to my site, and it will not take me to my site. I went to the action from the button I made, and put &quot;GET URL&quot; and I typed my site in, and also on the window drop down bar. I have been thru each one Blank,parent,self and top. When I go to play the movie in the HTML file, The LOGO button &quot;GET URL&quot; action will open up a page but the address bar is blank. (My site isnt in the address bar) and I get a <CAN NOT DISPLAY PAGE>. When I open the movie in swf the LOGO button &quot;GET URL&quot; action will not work. I have tried each one of the Windows like I said before. I dont know what I'm doing wrong I made flash movies before but never this long, and all of them worked fine. I dont know if there is a limit of actions that can be used in a film or what. To try to make the movie smaller in frames I Broke up the movie into Scenes, 3 Scenes are in my movie. I hope this all makes since, Please help me..
 
Can you make your .fla available?
That is... can you uploaded somewhere, so we can access it?

B-)
 
Rather not, Im using Flash 4. could it be I dont have enough scenes in it or something?
 
What's with using Flash 4 as opposed to 5?
As for scene quantity... I doubt it has something to do with it!
If you can't make your .fla available (I have no problem with that!)... Or don't post some of your code... There's not much more I can do!

It's up to you!

Well this is a dumb question, but you know flash right? Well, like when you make a button and it has a &quot;GET URL&quot; action, and you put the url in and when you play the swf, and it doesnt work why does'nt it? I have it on BLANK so it will open a blank page i dont know what im doing wrong. Could it be two action going on the same frame, or somethign like that?
 
Post your code man! Copy & paste!
I'm not looking at your screen behind your shoulders!

I don't know what to answer!
Are you testing this on the web? Are you linking back to your machine? Syntax error? I don't know!

Make your .fla available or post something more than &quot;it doesn't work!&quot; Can't deal with that! Sorry!

ok you want flash code this is what im trying to do
this is for my LOGO button at the end of my movie.
On (Release)
Get URL (&quot; window=&quot;_blank&quot;)
End On

note: my site isnt posted, but thats what the code it minus my site whats wrong with that??
 
On (Release)
Get URL (&quot;http:// , window=&quot;_blank&quot;)
End On

How about the missing red for starters!
And there shouldn't be a &quot;;&quot; after &quot;.com&quot; but I guess that's just TGML from this forum!
B-)
