Hi there !

I embed a flash swf into a div (with swf object), and on this div I’ve a onclick event  
which open a new window.

The onclick is still working but everywhere outside the swf file. When  
I click on the swf image, nothing happens…

I tried to put the onclick directly on the flash content div or in a  
div that contains the flash content, but it’s the same.

any trick ?

(no a link because I need to close that new window by js)
