</div>

to the flash boton put:

on (release) {  
getURL(“JavaScript:top.close()”, “\_self”);  
}

and in the head of the html:

\<script language=“javascript” type=“text/javascript”\>  
“JavaScript:top.close()” CLASS=“A2” onMouseover=“window.status=’\>\> Close’; return true” onmouseout=“window.status=’’;return true”\>  
\</script\>

sorry about my english…

Yanina: The whole \<SCRIPT\>\</SCRIPT\> in the head of the html won’t do anything, since this is in flash. And in your on(release) you use top.close(), yet use \_self as the target.

It should just be… [AS]on (release){  
getURL(“java\*\*script:window.close();”);  
}[/AS]
