Hello all... I'm doing some graphics for a community forum site, using the latest version of vBulletin.

I have a swf file with a built in button/link to a url. However this link wont work unless i tell it to open in a new window, ("_blank"). I want it to open in the same window ("_self").

This file/coding is correct... it works as intended on my html test page. link to test page (http://www.dougwatson.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/gallery.html) (the moving image on the top of that page links to a new page and opens in the same window.

However using the same file in vBullentin the link does not work site i'm working on. (http://www.tacteam.org/forums/cmps_index.php) Its like the button is disabled. If i change _self to _blank or simply remove it, the link works but opens in a new window. :confused:

Thanks for any help, guidance or ideas. :o
