    I am going crazy. I closed all security programs and google toolbar. Still nothing. I tried it and it works in Netscape though. Could it be an IE 7 beta issue? that is the browser I am running.
    Thanks

    Thanks- I tried to install the patch and I got an error message telling me that it was not compatible with the version of IE I am running(7 beta 3)
    After much frustration, I decided to use

    on (release) {
    getURL ("javascript:NewWindow=window.open()
    and it works!

    Thanks for all of your help!

    IE7 getURL directing to same/_self page

    I attempted many stabs in the dark trying to get a very old pre flash 8 version of a swf working (w IE7) and believe I have found something that will cover the "_self" case. After setting window.location.href with IE7 and escaping the double quotes as shown below I was only then able to successfully get this to work:

    args = "?parm1=value";
    baseURL ="http://mydomain.com";
    getURL("javascript:window.location.href=\"" + baseURL + "MyServletName" + args + "\";");
