CS4, AS2: Calling Lightbox from button

I'm working on a website www.designrd.com/ayla/

I am basically attempting to call up Lightbox 2 from the 'VIEW GALLERY' button in the swf as you can't make the whole swf a hyperlink..

The button has this code on it

Code:

---

on(release)
{
getURL("javascript:show('images/image1.jpg')");
}

---

and within the HTML I have this code

Code:

---

<a id="dummyanchor" href="" rel="lightbox"></a>

JAVASCRIPT:
function show(url) {
var a = document.getElementById('dummyanchor');
a.setAttribute('href',url);
myLightbox.start(a);
}

---

this was the best sounding solution I had found as given by 'under' on this page.

If there are an easier/other ways of doing this I am open to suggestion, I'm essentially trying to get a button within an SWF to call up Lightbox 2

UPDATE

This has gotten me closer, it's opening up the lightbox but without any images...

Code:

---

<a href="" rel="lightbox" id="callfromflash"></a>

<script type="text/javascript">
function openLightbox() {
fireEvent(document.getElementById("callfromflash"),'click');
}

function fireEvent(obj,evt){
var fireOnThis = obj;
if( document.createEvent ) {
var evObj = document.createEvent('MouseEvents');
evObj.initEvent( evt, true, false );
fireOnThis.dispatchEvent(evObj);
} else if( document.createEventObject ) {
fireOnThis.fireEvent('on'+evt);
}
}
</script>

<a href="images/1.jpg" id="callfromflash" rel="lightbox" title="GALLERY"></a>

I have a feeling the problem is the last bit of code, not sure how that's supposed to work exactly
