getURL and Javascript

Hi all!

I'm trying to close a lightbox called "multibox" from flash (which is opened in the lightbox) but in my case, getURL seems not to be able to call any other function than alert().

As far as I know, there is a close() method for multibox, so I tried both inline targeting like

Code:

---

getURL("javascript: myLightbox.close();");

---

and

Code:

---

getURL("javascript: myCloseFunction();");

---

where myCloseFunction() is just a function containing the call to close();

I even tried putting any other code in myCloseFunction() in my HTML, just to see if the function is called at all, but for some reason getURL seems not to call this function. By the way, there is no problem on the AS side: getURL itself works on the AS, when I put a URL or "javascript:alert('blah');" in it.

As I have had the same concept with other lightboxes, (like closing the lightbox window at the end of a video in flash) I'm sure that it should work. So I'll be very thankful for your help!

Any Idea?
