hey everyone!

I have this problem with loading an swf.  
when I release the button press it opens my swf in a new browser window. I would like it to load the swf and play it in my main frame.  
anybody that might know what Im doing wrong?

I use the code:

on (release) {

\_root.loadMovie(“showreel.swf”);

}
