Redirect HTML link working in IE/Opera, but not Firefox/Mozilla

[pablum]

I'm creating an offline Flash based promotional material and I have come across more problems when dealing with Flash's "sandbox security" measures.

To create links that go online that work, I tried creating a local .HTML redirect page and linked to it instead of having Flash link directly online.

The code below is just to show you what I was doing.

on (release) {
getURL("dotcom.html","_self");
}

Dotcom.html is just a page that redirects to a website.

This method works in Internet Explorer and Opera, but not Firefox or Mozilla.

So I assume this is an issue with those browsers, but I'm at a loss at what to do other than create a stop-off local HTML page that displays a link for users to click. Which means when they click inside the flash piece they will have to click an HTML link immediately afterwards.

I suppose I could also create a local webpage that is simply an iframe and link to the website in that method.

Does anybody have any ideas how to resolve this issue?
