On a humorous not: Java is a little too powerful to use as a window opener. Use JavaScript instead. 😉

yeah, the whole problem is i don’t have an html document ot ad the java script, because it is on a page within my flash site, so it is on a .swf file…  
look, [www.geocities.com/macneilslt/](http://www.geocities.com/macneilslt/)  
then look at the pictures section, notice the studio 334 skate park button? the goal is to send the user to that site in a new window, but i i don’t know how to do it with out using java script
