I took this code from one FLA and placed it on a button in another FLA. It works in the first swf file online, but not in the new one.

here is the code:

on (release) {  
getURL(“javascript:launchwin(‘[http://www.zoomazooma.com/edenclips/et\_thalia.htm](http://www.zoomazooma.com/edenclips/et_thalia.htm)’ , ‘popup’ , ‘height=300,width=400’)”);  
}

The only different parameters between the working and nonworking swf is this: In the first swf file, the code is on a button and the whole swf is the main movie. In the second swf, it is an swf that is loaded externally into the main timeline. You can see the work in progress by going to:

Then click on directors, then click on Eden Tyler, then rollover to the “Hershey’s Thalia” button. Very Weird.
