Hi I have just purchased this file and was planning on embedding it in an html document. But I need to be able to use the navigation in a way that the links all open in the existing window... (_SELF) and it does not work, only the _BLANK appears to work...please dont tell me that this thing will only work with the _Blank method...If you could get back to me as soon as possible I would really appreciate it, as this project is basically at a halt until I find out if I need to buy a new nav .
thanks

Hi, not sure what the problem is with the way you are accessing the data.xml file. I have used it in all the modes and works ok. You have to make sure the relative file paths are correct. For instance:

<button title="Test" toggleSubMenu="1" url="" target="_blank">

<submenu>
<subButton title="test2" url="../test/test2.html" target="">
</subButton> (This opens the file located back one directory, then to the test directory and then the file test2.html and in the same window)

<subButton title="test3" url="../test/test3.html" target="_blank">
</subButton> (This opens the file located back one directory, then to the test directory and then the file test3.html and in a new window)

<subButton title="test4" url="test4.html" target="">
</subButton> (This opens the file located in the same directory and in the same window
</submenu>
</button>

Each subdirectory the files are in needs it's own data.xml and swf file. The swf file can be the same in each directory. The data.xml file needs to reflect the directory structure. If all your files are located in the same parent directory, then there is no need to do this.

Let me know if this is of any help or if I missed what you were asking.
