Flash & PHP

Hello,
I have built a contact form in Flash and have linked it up to a PHP file so the results can be sent to me via e-mail. Everything is working fine and I’m getting the info via e-mail, however, once you press “send” on the form an annoying browser window opens up linking to that PHP file (it’s blank though).

What do I need to do to stop this new window (or any window) opening up? I’m using Flash professional 8 and have used the loadVars command to send to the file. I tried removing the “_blank” portion of the 3 parameters that flash is expecting, but it still does it. Can I replace it with something, or do I need to build the form a different way?

I found a tutorial here on Kirupa, however, I didn’t like the set-up of the file and was not able to manipulate it and add the if & else statements to validate the info.

Any help/suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.
