    Opening New SWF Window

    Hey everyone,

    I need help asap as this needs to be finished by today. All Im asking you is how to open a new .swf in a SEPERATE window

    If you use the method _root.loadmovie, it opens the swf in which you get into the same window. Someone has suggested to me using the following code:

    on(release){
    getURL("newSWF.swf","_blank");
    }


    Theres a few problems with this. First of all when I tried it when a test swf it seemed to work , but the swf in which it was to open, opened in a new BROWSER and I need a new swf window

    Secondly, I tried with my game menu and the URL worked fine if I load the movie , but when I use the getURL method, the url I used doesnt seem to work

    If someone could please help me out it would be greatly appreciated
