ok let me try and explain this as clearly as possible..
i know how to send variables, gotoframe ect..from html/javascript to a flash movie...example:
this is the function in javascript:
<script language="javascript">
function testbut(){
document.test1.GotoFrame(3);
}
</script>
the movie is named "test1" in the embeded and id..
this function send the flash movie to frame#3..
ok this works fine, but only works if the flash movie is in the same html page as the script...now it gets complicated...what i want to do is send the flash movie to frame#3 but from a pop window(separate html document)
i have an idea that the function should look something like this:

function testbut(){
parent.document.test1.GotoFrame(3);
}
(parent) since its being opened from a another window, but this is not working....anyone out there has a clue as to how to refer to the parent window where the popup was opened from??
