ok im workin on a website and i have 4 buttons on it all assigned to seperate text html pages. THe problem is the links on 3 of the buttons, when pressed go to the correct corresponding html page, however one of them instead of going to the assigned page, opens a would you like to down this file dialouge, and does not go to the page. The problem im having is the fact that the broken button is assigned with a link the exact same way as the other working ones, and if i type in the address of the page it is trying to link to, the page opens correctly by itself. Try it, the address is [http://www.geocities.com/noxcandy/noxcandynews.html](http://www.geocities.com/noxcandy/noxcandynews.html)
also the script for the link in flash is:
on (release) {
getURL(“[http://www.geocities.com/noxcandy/noxcandynews](http://www.geocities.com/noxcandy/noxcandynews)”, “\_blank”);
}
ok can someone please help me out that would rule. thanks!

the problem, is that you are not requesting a page. you’re missing .html after your page name. 😉
```auto
on (release) {
getURL("http://www.geocities.com/noxcandy/noxcandynews.html", "_blank");
}
```
