macromedia flash sitedesign: I have a site with frames and can successfully navigate between them. However what I would like to do is have one page on the site that opens without frames but at the same time does not open a new window. Is there anyway to do this successfully?

you want to open a whole page over the rest?

use 'top' as a target in your anchor or jscript function or getURL function in Flash

what I want to do is have the page open with in the same site only without the navigation frame at the top. what I want to avoid is opening a new window.

'top' should work.

how did you define your frameset? maybe you can show some source?

My frameset is a standard top and bottom frame as defined by Dreamweaver MX, my navbar is Flash MX.

maybe you can show the code which loads the page you want to get in your whole browser window...

if you are using getURL() :


Usage
getURL(url , window)

Parameters
url The URL from which to obtain the document.

window An optional parameter specifying the window or HTML frame that the document should load into. You can enter the name of a specific window or choose from the following reserved target names:

_self specifies the current frame in the current window.
_blank specifies a new window.
_parent specifies the parent of the current frame.
_top specifies the top-level frame in the current window.

Here is my framset code. If I try a std html tag such as _self for the link it opens a new browser window which is what I am trying to avoid.


<frameset rows="64,*" cols="*" framespacing="0" frameborder="NO" border="0">
<frame src="navbar.htm" name="topFrame" scrolling="NO" noresize >
<frame src="bottom.htm" name="mainFrame">
</frameset>

try to use _top instead of _self
