Hello. I have a number of buttons that open PDF documents. I have the following code entered for these buttons:

on (release) {

//Goto Webpage Behavior
getURL("folder/filename.pdf","_blank");
//End Behavior

}

When I load the web page(s) the PDF's don't open on my machine. I get a browser error:

Action canceled
Internet Explorer was unable to link to the Web page you requested. The page might be temporarily unavailable.

however when I open the page on other pc's it works right away. Is there something I need to add to the code? What could be causing this to work on some pc's and not others?

Cheers

Hello. Thanks for the thought. I checked it on a few more machines and it works on everyone but mine! Too bad I'm the developer :(

Must be something with my machine.
