I am using the following basic code to open an external html file. I want the browser to fully redirect to this URL (not open a new window)...hence the use of "_self":
This seems to work intermittently. I tested in IE6, IE7 and Firefox, all on different PCs. I don't know if this is a browser issue, or perhaps my publishing options need to be changed.
When it DOESN'T work, I get no error messages. The button simply appears moused over and I get the "hand", but I am not navigated to the page.
Also, the related button is in a swf that is loaded on level 50 from the main timeline. If I navigate to that swf directly, this works fine. Is getURL affected by levels? I tried mucking with the getURL command, such as prefacing it with
or
with no success.
If I simply use _blank it always works fine on all the PCs...but that is not the functionality required.
Any ideas?
Code:
on (release) {
getURL("[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.mydomain.com/registration.html","_self");[/URL]
