I’ve seen this issue around but have had absolutely zero luck with finding a definite solution…

I’m using both HTML frames and Flash movies on my website and have created a navigation bar in Flash. The nav bar sits in one frame, and I’ve linked the buttons so that that they _should_ load all content into the other frame. The problem is, when I click the button the link opens up not in the specified frame, but in a new window. This is the AS i’m using for my navigation buttons:

```php
on (release)
{
    getURL("example.html", "frame name");
}

```

I’ve tried just about everything I can think of and am at my wit’s end. Any help would be fantastic:sigh:
