Prev: Free Transform/Rotate Causes Flash CS3 to Crash

I apologize for sounding like an absolute newbie, but I am with flash. I don't
know if what I want to do is to be done in flash or my HTML file...

I have a simple flash movie (a curtain raising) that on completion, I want the
HTML page with flash to automatically go to the home page of my site (without
any clicking). I'm not even sure of the keywords to search on when doing a
google search... So I don't know if this is something I can signal in flash or
if it is done some other way.

If anybody can point me in the right direction, I would very much appreciate
it.

I'm assuming you mean that when the curtain finishes playing you want the page
to another switch to another URL (if so, you stated it clearly... it's just I
can never be sure based on experience in these forums).

To do that, in the last frame of the flash movie you want to utilize the
following (assuming you are using AS3):

1) set a URLRequest

var url:String = "... your home page url";
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);

2) load the new URL to the current window

navigateToURL(request, "_self");
