flash actionscript:
Hello,

I am working on a flash front end for a web based app (ColdFusion is the app server) and I have a "getURL" link with a target. The problem is everytime the button is pressed it launches a new window as opposed to populating the defined window that is already open...

If someone can help me...

Thanks

I regret to inform that neither of these suggestions seem to be working....

I thank everyone for helping, but this is one of the more fustrating things about flash...I took the same code
from Flash

on (press) {
getURL("/tcm/app/cfm/vertical_access_handler.cfm?vertical_code=BSA", "BSA");
}

slapped it in HTML via dream weaver

<a href="/tcm/app/cfm/vertical_access_handler.cfm?vertical_code=BSA" target="bsa"><img name="tst_r2_c2" src="tst_r2_c2.gif" width="106" height="47" border="0" alt=""></a>


and it works (i.e. when a user on my page hits the link 1, 5 100 times it opens said link in the (already open) window as opposed to what flash is doing, which is opening a nes window each time the link is pressed..

Please HELP me someone my boos WANTS this in flash I want to throw my mac out a window

your code doesn't look anything like either of the two suggestions made. are you trying to target a frame - "BSA"?
