Hi guys I wanted to know how I could link a button in flash to a web page but the problem is that the webpage is in the root and the flash file is in a flash folder i made.. so how do i make the swf link to the html file in the root?
".." is used to move up a directory i believe

actually .
i think ".." means 'root' :D
..\ or ../ is up a directory
.\  or ./ is the same directory

I believe this is actually linux native though
Windows uses "\" as the directory separator, whilst *nix uses "/".  Windows accepts "/" as well, but "\" is often used as an escape character, so I can't see it working on Linux.

.. = up one level
. = current directory
/ = root on *nix whilst \ is for Windows.
