    Gonna blow if I can't fix this!!

    Got a swish movie generated as a new window from the original window opened by going to my site (http://listen.to/maxlyrics) which SHOULD on completion and if the skip intro text is pressed, load the homepage into the parent window, i.e. the original one. However for some reason this doesn't work, whether I use Target = "_parent" or name the original windown 'start' in Javascript and use Target = "start".

    Anyone know how to sort this?

    I'm pretty sure you will need to modify your Javascript (both in the main window and the pop-up window) ... here is the code :
    http://javascript.internet.com/navig...e-control.html

    that is, if I'm understanding your question correctly.

    Hope it helps,
    Peaces,

    Hi Cadence,

    Cheers for the script link, I was about to use it, its really good, but we need the swish to load before the main page - that's the whole point because its an intro - which you can't do with that script cos its basically just a popup.

    Any ideas on how to load the swish <i>before </i> loading the site page?

    Cheers

    Cheers Cadence

    Found a way to use remote control, should be pretty sweet - a blank page with a link to launch the movie, then a GO link at the end of the movie to launch the site back in the original window.

    Thanks a lot for the script, check me out again some time
