can anyone help me with the actionscript nexessary for a button that closes
both the movie and the broswer window that it is running in?
Also, is this different to the actionscript that would be needed to close the
movie from the player if it is not running through a browser?

....confused!!

Close window:

on (release) {
getURL("javascript:parent.window.close();");
}

Press Ctrl + F12 to test this

Close Movie:

on (release) {
fscommand("quit");
}
