[SIZE=3][FONT=Times New Roman]I have a flash 8 movie in an internet explorer 7 html window. I tried a simple getURL(“http://www.google.com/”) and IE7/flash gives me a security warning. When I go to change the settings they are already set to “always allow”. Is IE7 not allowing geturls now? Is there a better way to do this?[/FONT][/SIZE]

[SIZE=3][FONT=Times New Roman]This next issue is less important because I realized I don’t need it for this particular project, but I was trying to close the html window from the flash movie with no luck. I tried a few variations of getURL(“javascript:window.close()”) which didn’t work and then I tried just calling a js function (exitCourse) that was on the html page (i had an alert in the function to test with). I tried all of the following:[/FONT][/SIZE]

[SIZE=3][FONT=Times New Roman]getURL(“javascript:exitCourse()”);[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=Times New Roman]getURL(“javascript:window.exitCourse()”);[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=Times New Roman]getURL(“javascript:_parent.exitCourse()”);[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=Times New Roman]getURL(“javascript:this.exitCourse()”);[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=Times New Roman]getURL(“javascript:_parent._parent.exitCourse()”);[/FONT][/SIZE]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3] [/SIZE][/FONT]
[SIZE=3][FONT=Times New Roman]It couldn’t access the function at all. I had this issue at my old job, where we built movies that would close okay in IE6 but did nothing (not even a warning) in IE7. Luckily the clients were using 6.[/FONT][/SIZE]

[SIZE=3][FONT=Times New Roman]I briefly tried to capture FSCommands but that wasn’t working either. Should I spend more time with this method?[/FONT][/SIZE]

[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]The biggest issue is after the user completes this movie, it needs to redirect to another html page.[/SIZE][/FONT]
Thanks,
