i created a full menu with 7 buttons,  
each button should open a new html page in the frame UNDER the frame where the flash menu is loaded.

i thought the command should be:  
on (release) {  
getURL(“pages/home.htm”, “kirupa”);  
}

but nothing happens  
if i change the url name into a [http://blablabla/pages/home.htm](http://blablabla/pages/home.htm)  
it works fine, but if i use this relative link it won’t work,  
anybody an idea?
