Flash Trouble

[Shannon]

I've ran into some trouble here. I've got my Flash navigation bar with all mah links to my pages. Now, when the user clicks on the link I want the pages to load in an IFrame labelled content.

Now, I've added the following Actionscript to my buttons:

on (release) {
    getURL("./home.htm", "_content");
}

When I embed the Flash file into my HTML and try the links it won't load my pages up in the IFrame.

Can you post some sourcefiles so I can get a beter idea of what is going on.

Treat the link exactly as you would with a normal iframe. - If thats not what you are doing already.

I found out the problem:

<iframe [b]name="_content1"[/b] id="content" height="374" width="620" src="./home.htm" frameborder="0">

I forgot to add a name attribute to my IFrame. In this case I named it _content1. The name attribute is the part Flash looks for to load the file.

Thus, I add the following actionscript to my buttons in Flash:

on (release) {
    getURL("./home.htm", "_content1");
}

I am having trouble getting my Flash movie to return to my home page after it plays. I tried get URL but when I place it in the dialogue box it doubles the address and I get an unknown address message after it runs? It can't find it ?
