how to make swf load html file from same cd?

Question

I have a rather seemingly simple question. We are
constructing a cd that will autorun and begin playing a flash
animation (swf file), and at the end of that animation, I need to
put some actionscript into the last frame that will end it, kill
the player window, and open a browser window and go directly to an
html file on that same cd. Could someone provide a snippet of code
that would achieve this? I am using Flash CS3 but am sticking to
actionscript 2.0 for the movie. Any help would be much appreciated!
Thank you in advance.

just one question at this point. Where is your swf running? inside a standalone player, or embedded inside a HTML page.

if the latter is the case, you can use javascript methods to control the same. you can open a new window, close the current (they have workarounds) and even navigate to another html page if that is what you want.

swfs dont have access to control the player window when running inside standalone player. They need to access some other language api to do so.
Either embed your swf in some projector + wrapper, or inside a Web page.
