1. General Flash ? 2. Coldfusion/Flash?

  1. I have a question which I would assume is easy to answer. I am building a website that is using a combination of coldfusion pages (*.cfm) and flash. The coldfusion is being used for the login, registration, and payment type pages (since my understanding is flash is not secure in these areas) and then flash is being used for “lectures” and “tests.”

I know how to go from coldfusion to flash (simply embed the swf into an html page and call that page), [SIZE=4][COLOR=red](1)[/COLOR][/SIZE] but I do not know how to go from flash to html in the same window. I have used the “getURL” command but no matter how I use the location (i.e., _top, _self, _parent, or _blank), it always comes up into a seperate window. [SIZE=4][COLOR=red](2)[/COLOR][/SIZE] Also, I have noticed that flash does not like to open *.cfm files using the getURL. When I do this, it asks me if I want to open it, save it, or cancel (instead of just simply opening it in IE). When I select “open it” it opens not in the IE browser but opens up in my Dreamweaver application.

I appreciate any information you may have.
Thanks
