i’ve made menu bar in flash cs4 as3, and i put it on to my website in dreamweaver.  
example one of my butons is btn2, and when i click on btn2 it opens a wanted html page that i’ve set , BUT IN NEW TAB :///

btn2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,goToBtn2);  
function goToBtn2 (e:Event):void {  
getURL(‘file:///C:/Users/Aleksandar/Desktop/WEBSITE/html/index.html’);  
}

any way to open that html page in same tab, btw im using mozilla firefox 🙂  
Thanks
