[F8] Error with basic HTML link

[Heirattic]

I have a list of links on a page in flash, and each has a button over it that is to open a new page with the link.

The problem is that when clicked, the new page comes up "www.addressname.com,_blank,0"

WTF am I doing wrong? I have always done html links that way without issue.


Can someone please help? I have done a search, but everything seems to involve javascript popup windows.

what code are you using ?

the code you should be using is -
getURL("http://www.addressname.com","_blank");

[Heirattic]

on (press) getURL("http://www.addressname.com","_blank");
}

Thats what I just put there, but it gives me errors

the top two buttons open a _top and a _blank window
the bottom two are pop ups
