I have created a flash intro to a website I am building. What do I need to do to have the movie at the end redirect to the homepage of the website. I am usingFlash MX. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Place the getURL action on the frame where you movie stops, something like this:

```php
getURL("main.html", "_parent");

```

EDIT: I just realized you didn’t need the on(release){

I received the following when pasting in your previous post.

Scene=Scene 1, Layer=water text, Frame=665: Line 2: Unexpected ‘}’ encountered  
}

Scene=Scene 1, Layer=actions, Frame=700: Line 1: Mouse events are permitted only for button instances  
on (release) {

I will try the new code you submitted. Thanks for the quick response. I am a newbie so my questions may seem trivial.
