As I said, this worked in every PC browser until the Flash 5 plugin.
This is the Director script :
externalEvent ("delay null,"&QUOTE&gstrA&QUOTE&","&gstrB&","&gstrC&")")

This is the VB script n the page:
<script language="vbscript">
   sub MovieName_ExternalEvent(byVal
timesThrough,firstName,secondNum,thirdNum)
    call delay(timesThrough,firstName,secondNum,thirdNum)
   end sub
</script>
This is the Javascript on the page:
<SCRIPT language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"><!--
function delay(timesThrough,firstName,secondNum,thirdNum)
{
        if (timesThrough == null)
        {
        
setTimeout("delay(1,'"+firstName+"',"+secondNum+","+thirdNum+")",250);
        }
        else
        {
        // Create the new window
                rep =
window.open('','report','status=yes,toolbar=no,scrollbars=yes,resizable=no,s
creenX=30,screenY=30,width=500,height=350');
                rep.document.write('<html>\n<head>\n<title>Data
Report</title>\n');
                rep.document.write('<SCRIPT language="JavaScript"
type="text/javascript"><!');
                rep.document.write('--\n');
                rep.document.write('function printit(){ \n');
                rep.document.write('if
(navigator.userAgent.toLowerCase().indexOf("msie") != -1) {\n');
                rep.document.write('var WebBrowser = \'<OBJECT
ID="WebBrowser1" WIDTH=0 HEIGHT=0
CLASSID="CLSID:8856F961-340A-11D0-A96B-00C04FD705A2"></OBJECT>\';\n');
        
rep.document.write('document.body.insertAdjacentHTML(\'beforeEnd\',
WebBrowser);\n');
                rep.document.write('WebBrowser1.ExecWB(6, 2);//Use a 1 vs. a
2 for a prompting dialog box\n');
                rep.document.write('WebBrowser1.outerHTML = "";\n');
                rep.document.write('} else {\n');
                rep.document.write('    window.print() ;\n');
                rep.document.write('}\n');
                rep.document.write('}\n');
                rep.document.write('//--><');
                rep.document.write('/script>\n');
                rep.document.write('</head>\n');
                rep.document.write('<body bgcolor=#FFFFFF text=#333333>\n');

                rep.document.write('<center><font face="verdana,helvetica"
size=4>\n');
                rep.document.write('<b>Data Report</b></font><p>\n');
                rep.document.write('<p> user = '+ firstName+'\n');
                rep.document.write('<p> Second Number = '+ secondNum+'\n');
                rep.document.write('<p> Third Number = '+ thirdNum+'\n');
                rep.document.write('<FORM><INPUT type="button" value="Print"
onClick="printit();"></FORM>\n');
                rep.document.write('</body>\n');
                rep.document.write('</html>\n');
                rep.document.close();
//              rep.print();
//              rep.close();
  }
}
//--></SCRIPT>

Hi Brian

What kind of event are you trying to trigger and are you specifically using
externalEvent or are you using something else like
goToNetPage("Javascript:......").

Sincerely
