Hi

I want to make an actionscript where, at the end of my Flash-movie, the Flash-window will close ‘automatically’ after the getURL-action is performed. Can someone tell me how to do this?  
Like, in the last frame, I got so far:

* * *

**stop();**  
**getURL(“[http://www.somewhere.com](http://www.somewhere.com)”);**

* * *

And then what?..  
Thanks for helping me out!
