Stop spawning windows

Question

hi all, im a noob.
ive setup a flash movie that posts to a webservice using
geturl(url, 0, "POST"), which works fine, the annoying thing is the
browser window that gets spawned everytime it gets posted.
is there an alternative to getURL or can i turn 'target' off?
cheers

hi octav20xx
- i think because the movie is a projector file, "_self"
starts up a new browser window rather than loading into itself.
- my code is - I'm not sure how to use LoadVars in this
situation
quote:
on (release) {
//post username and password to blob
trace ("myUsername = " + regUsername.text);
trace ("myPassword = " + regPassword.text);
var createURL = "
http://ws.domainname.com/datablob/1.0/create?username="
+ regUsername.text + "&password=" + regPassword.text;
trace ("createURL = " + createURL);
getURL(createURL,_self,"POST");
//now login
gotoAndPlay("login");
any help, clues or guesses are much appreciated. thank
you!
