target path on cd project

[TriciaJo]

I've created a Flash intro for a standalone cd project. Autorun starts the Flash intro which fades out and then I want it to automatically go to the html "Home Page" on the CD rather than another frame in the Flash movie or a URL. The Home Page is in the same directory as the .swf file. After the intro fades, it attempts to find the home.html page, but it can't find it. In the last frame of the movie, I used the action "get URL" and simply put "home.html" as the target URL (no "http" or "

http://www",

etc. Any suggestions or help would be appreciated. Thanks!

I know this is going to sound a bit patronising (not meant to!), but are you sure you're homepage is actually called "home.html" and not "home.htm"?

I've just been through Macromedia's Technotes and that's about al I can think of ...

Thanks for the suggestion. Sometimes things like that get overlooked. On this particular CD, the name of the page isn't actually "Home.html" I just used that in my question to simplify the question. The actual page is named "projdoc.html" and the extension is ".html"

how did you enter the getURL?

home.html or ../home.html

the ../ slash looks in the same directory is the sef

hope this helps
