gotoNetPage "URL", {"targetName"}
Command; opens a movie with Shockwave content or another MIME file in the browser.
Only URLs are supported as valid parameters. Relative URLs work if the movie is on an HTTP or FTP server.
In the authoring environment, the gotoNetPage command launches the preferred browser if it is enabled. In projectors, this command tries to launch the preferred browser set with the Network Preferences dialog box or browserName command. If neither has been used to set the preferred browser, the goToNetPage command attempts to find a browser on the computer.
URL Required. Specifies the URL of the movie with Shockwave content or MIME file to play.
targetName Optional. An HTML parameter that identifies the frame or window in which the page is loaded.
targetName is a window or frame in the browser, gotoNetPage replaces the contents of that window or frame.
targetName isn't a frame or window that is currently open, goToNetPage opens a new window. Using the string "_new" always opens a new window.
targetName is omitted, gotoNetPage replaces the current page, wherever it is located.
The following script loads the file Newpage.html into the frame or window named frwin. If a window or frame in the current window called frwin exists, that window or frame is used. If the window frwin doesn't exist, a new window named frwin is created.
on keyDown gotoNetPage "Newpage.html", "frwin" end
This handler opens a new window regardless of what window the browser currently has open:
on mouseUp goToNetPage "Todays_News.html", "_new" end
