inside of a flash site, I am wanting to change to another frame depending on the previous URL. I have tried several ways but none are working. I am using AS3. I am pretty new to this. Here is what I have now.

testURL.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE\_DOWN, getHistory);

function getHistory(event:MouseEvent):void{  
var request = new URLRequest(“javascript:history.go(+1);”)  
if (“javascript:history.go(+1)” == “/cubs/sliding/”){  
gotoAndStop(2);  
}else{  
gotoAndStop(4);  
}

}

This was a test to see if I could get a button to redirect me. It doesn’t work though.

thanks.
