I need to create a button (in flash) and when it is clicked i need a new browser to open with a new url in it (no problem), but I also need to close the current window that they clicked from.

I see close buttons in pop up windows all the time. Can any1 point me at a tute or help me out with this. Im sure its dead simple, but its got me stumped!

Many many thanks,  
Stu.
