Flash Intro then auto load HTML Home Page

I have created a Flash Intro that I have published as HTML and SWF. I
have placed this into my HTML file. I need to know how to call up my home page HTML after the SWF file ends. I can call up the page
or watch the movie but I can't get the page to call up after the movie is over. What do I need to do to (automatically load) call the HTML from the end of
the Flash movie?
Operating System:

Thank You.

Hi

You would do this using actionscript by placing a loadPage action in the last frame of your swf/fla file.

When I use the code:

stop();
loadPage ("www.countrymorningfarms.com/cmfhome.html");

I get an error "call to a possibly undefined method"

I am using Flash CS4.

Any help you can give me would be appreciated. I would also like to know if I have to post this to a live web host to test properly or if I can test it locally.

Thanks,

Doug

Hi

You will have to point it to your local file for testing then change it again for the live version.

Update: or use site relative links.

PZ,

Thanks for the help. Here is the code that finally worked.

var url:String = "http://file:///C:/Website_Design/Test_Files/";
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("cmfHome.html");
try {
navigateToURL(request, '_parent'); // second argument is target
} catch (e:Error) {
trace("Error occurred!");
}

I have been trying to solve this problem for a week. Well done.

Doug

PS What is a site relative link?
