ok…  
but you are not understanding that how can i pass parameters so that my button opens a specific scene or framename in a external swf?

on (release) {  
loadMovieNum(“external.swf”, 1);  
gotoAndPlay(“scene 1”,“framename”);  
}

this code works perfectly but i just want to open the external.swf in new window

</div>

if the url was like this newswf.swf?scene=purchase&frame=purchase then you could just do this for the code I think…

```auto

on (release) {
loadMovieNum("external.swf", 1);
gotoAndPlay(scene,frame);// scene would = purchase, frame would = purchase.
}

```

I’ve never passed parameters into flash, but I’m pretty sure that’s how it works.

oh I get it, you could pass url parameters like I was saying and simply pass one called scene and one called frame, and then put this code on the first frame of your external movie:

[AS]gotoAndPlay(scene,frame);[/AS]
