I snagged some lovely code from here about launching a browser window from within Flash (controlling all aspects of the window: scrollbars, size, etc.) using what was done here - **[http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/centered\_popup.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/centered_popup.htm)**. That seemed to work fine, with the exception being I used the **“\_root.openWinCentre”** code shown on the Kirupa site as opposed to the code in the downloadable file ( **“Movieclip.prototype.openWinCentre”** ). That works fine; it launches a browser. Problem is, when that movie is loaded into another movie, it no longer launches a browser. Works fine by itself, but does not once loaded into another Flash file. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks
