Flash Button Target

2
I created a flash button with getURL() that i use on an HTML site.

But i cant seem to change the target frame it should open the page in.

I can use _blank, _parent, _top, _self, but if i place in the frame name it does nothing.

please help

Have a look at this. It should clear things up.

I have been there thanx, but it limits you to predefined targets(_blank, _parent....)

I need to point to another frame

The folowing does nothing

on (release) {
getURL("manualleft.html","leftFrame");
}

Hi Kumuti.
No it does not limits you, if you read well, it says that it can be the name of the frame OR one of the specified.
It should work that way, rember that the frame parameter must be name, so the getURL window parameter must be the exact frame's name parameter.

Anyway, I totally discourage the use of frames, they are totally obtrusive not to mention deprecated ages ago and not planned to return in any new release. There are always safer and better ways to replace the use of frames.

Try to see if there is anythingelse that may be going wrong. Or get rid of frames for good.

Anyway, tell me the doctype of your html document. May be the latest versions of HTML are causing your script not to work (because since HTML 4, frames are totally deprecated)

Best regards,
The_Nephilim
