Is there AS 3.0 script similar to getURL to automatically forward after flash

    I'm trying to get my flash intro to automatically forward to the main site once it is finished loading. I know that in earlier actionscript versions the following code would work, but I'm using CS4 and I can't find any work around.
    getURL("mydomain/mypage");

    Any help would be appreciated!

    The getURL method is used in ActionScript 2.0 and is no longer available to ActionScript 3.0
    In ActionScript 3.0 you can navigate to a site, say google.com
    as shown below:
    
var url:String = "http://www.google.com";
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);

try {            
    navigateToURL(request);
} catch (e:Error) {
    trace(e);
}
    Code (markup):
    Hope that helps.
