COMPLEX ROTATOR BY BOBOCEL

Hi All,

This file’s great, but I have one issue with it – and in Bobocel’s profile it says he won’t be able to respond due to final exams (fair enough! ).

Hopefully it’s something fairly straightforward that someone could advise on:

In .xml file, the images used by the Complex Rotator are given a hyperlink target – which is _blank by default. I’ve changed these to _self, but they still open in a new window.

Does anyone know why this might be? I couldn’t spot anything over-riding it in the actionscript, but I’m fairly new to Flash.

Thanks for you help,

Dan

Are you testing it on a server or on your local machine? I had a similar problem trying to target an iFrame and it would always open in a new window when I tested locally but worked ok when I uploaded to the server.

Are just opening the swf locally? The swf needs to be embedded in an html page to open as “_self”, if you’re using windows then launching urls won’t work unless you’ve uploaded to a server due to microsoft security issues.
