flash (macromedia) : Direct Flash movie to HTML Page

Hi,

Flash MX beginner here... I have created a Flash movie and when it's done I
want it to automatically open an HTML page in the same window - can someone
help?

I have the 'stop' function - but the 'get URL' function does not work - I am
creating a presentation on CD ROM (not on the web). I used 'get URL
(index.html)' and it's in the same place as the Flash movie page. Any ideas?
I assume this is pretty simple but I've had no luck hunting around FAQ's...

Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

What you are doing is exactly right. You are just doing something slightly
wrong. Are you writing getURL(index.html) or getURL("index.html")? Even though
neither one will give a script error, one works and the other doesn't. Without
seeing your script, it is hard to tell what the problem is but it is a really
simple one.

Thanks, you were right on your first suggestion - when I click "getURL" (in
Actionscripts) it just puts brackets in and doesn't put the quotation marks in
so didn't know they were required. Thanks again!
