insert an AS3 code to a Close Button

I am trying to create a close button on a transparent flash movie and it is not working. My movie is playing in an html page in its own window. I inserted a button in a layer and add this code :

. When the button is pressed I want to close the flash movie. How do I do this?

Thanks in Advance!

this.close_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,closeall);
function closeall(event:MouseEvent):void
Fscommand ("quit")

Open in new window

try this:

this.close_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,closeall);
function closeall(event:MouseEvent):void
ExternalInterface.call("javascript:window.close();");
}

Many thanks for your reply, I have these errors

Scene 1, Layer 'Actions', Frame 300, Line 2 1126: Function does not have a body.
ComponentShim (Compiled Clip), Line 1 5000: The class 'fl.controls.Button' must subclass 'flash.display.MovieClip' since it is linked to a library symbol of that type.

what should i do?

deepanjandas

Try this:

// the function that runs when after button was clicked
function closeall(e:MouseEvent):void {
var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest("javascript:window.close();");
navigateToURL(req, "_self");
}
close_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,closeall);

The error that you forwarded has nothing to do with the code i provided.
To debug that you need to share some more of your code snippet.

here is my flash movie
simple-transparent-ads.zip
when i click on close button, i want to close only the flashmovie

thanks for your help

Hi,
There is no such direct way.
You can call a javascript function from flash which will hide the flash object.
