Hello,

I’ve tried several tutorials on this site as well as other sites, and I can’t seem to get my flash button to open a page in another frame!

Here is the frameset HTML (the “rightframe” is just wallpaper):

> 

\<frameset cols=“900,_" MARGINWIDTH=0 MARGINHEIGHT=0 FRAMEBORDER=“NO” border=“0” NORESIZE SCROLLING=“NO”\>  
\<frameset rows="233,_” MARGINWIDTH=0 MARGINHEIGHT=0 FRAMEBORDER=“NO” border=“0” NORESIZE SCROLLING=“NO”\>  
**\<FRAME SRC=“workmenu.html” NAME=“workmenu” NORESIZE SCROLLING=“NO” MARGINWIDTH=0 MARGINHEIGHT=0 FRAMEBORDER=“NO” border=“0”\>  
\<FRAME SRC=“content.html” NAME=“content” NORESIZE MARGINWIDTH=0 MARGINHEIGHT=0 FRAMEBORDER=“NO” border=“0”\>**  
\</frameset\>  
\<FRAME SRC=“rightframe.html” NAME=“rightframe” scrolling=“no” NORESIZE MARGINWIDTH=0 MARGINHEIGHT=0 FRAMEBORDER=“NO” border=“0”\>

\<noframes\>  
\<body\>  
\<p\>This page uses frames, but your browser doesn’t support them.\</p\>  
\</body\>  
\</noframes\>  
\</frameset\>

The original frameset loads fine, starting with the “content.html” page in the “content” frame. The “workmenu” frame loads my Flash menu. The menu button’s actionscript commands are:

> 

on(release){  
getURL(“page1.html”, “content”);  
}

Yet when I publish and click the button, “page1.html” is loading into a new window instead of the “content” frame. I believe I’ve followed the tutorial’s instructions closely, but to no avail. I’m using Flash MX 2004. Help would be much appreciated!
