hi,

why won´t the attached file open the link - check the code on the button, which is from  
[http://www.learningflashmx.com/flash\_popup\_windows.html](http://www.learningflashmx.com/flash_popup_windows.html)

my browser tells me that  
“…this procedure is not possible… because safari won´t allow to execute the javascript that way”

any clues? thanks…
