I am trying to open some links through getURL().  
when I test it by Ctrl+Enter, the links open fine.  
but when I upload them to the server and test them on a browser(any), the links won’t open. everything else works when I click, just that getURL won’t open the links at all.

I have **no** idea what is going on…

I am using Flash CS4, targeting Flash Player 9.

here is a link if anyone wants to test. [link](http://www.omsasia.com/)

EDIT: i tried uploading it on a different server, and the links work fine. once I get into the page again, they don’t…

see it here [different server link](http://mindfock.com/experiments/headercs3.html)
