So i have a two framed website, in the top frame is an html file with the swf file in it. The swf file contains a link to a page that I want it to open in the bottom frame.  
This is the code I used which doesn;t work.

```auto

function onClick(event:MouseEvent):void
{
    navigateToURL(link,"mainFrame");
}

```

I tried everything. The \_top argument works fine. i tried \_parent but that opens a blank document. Im I missing a step?
