Cut what you have so far from the HTML Source window and paste it in a message board message. =)

Shouldn't putting the flash god within an A HREF do it?

Hello Dangerous!

Did you create buttons in Flash or just using DW's feature Insert Flash Button?
If used Flash - you have to change your flash file there and change parameters (Window - frame name).
If you did it using DW - I personally couldn't find how to change it there... :-( Use Flash.

Good Luck!
