flash (macromedia):
Hey,

I've got my flash menu in my top frame, and it points every link to my main frame:

on (release)
{
getURL("main.html", "mainFrame");
}

It works, or worked fine until I decided to have one (and only one) of my buttons point to an absolute address (ie: http://www.thedomain.com/thepage.html).

The menu will work fine until I try to click on the button with the absolute link. It loads the correct page into the correct frame and then sort of "kills" any button that points to a relative link...?

I'm new to flash and completely baffled. I then changed another button to an absolute link to see if I could find the problem and It does the same thing. Once I click on either one of the absolute addresed buttons, all other buttons are nonfunctional, but the two remain workable. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Peace.

try to avoid names like main or mainFrame , these are reserved
word by javascript or other coding languages which may cause some of the action
to fail , use unique personal naming conventions , my_bottom_frame or bubu_bang etc.....
