Using a link or button I am trying to open an external swf file. I know how to open it in an external browser but I want it to show up using the built in flash player. :h:Im sure its something easy that I am over looking. Been using the program for years and never needed to do this. Im developing more of an application than a website. Thanks in advance for any replies.
