I have a text with html.  
Like this

```auto
<a href="dasdas">button</a>

```

Now, when im clicking on the button, why is flash preloading the page?  
For example, if it contains a text, and i change the page, it is still showing the old text.  
And it takes time when im clicking, im guessing thats because it is preloading the page.

How can i fix this? I want it to open the page directly, and not wait for like a few seconds and preload the page, and them open it.
