You need to reroute the mainframe so that the network is buffered via the secondary data bus, only then can you engage the killswitch on the main access memory which will give you enough time to launch the internet browser in the swf.

In other words: WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU MEAN.

You just use a getURL.
getURL("http://www.newgrounds.com/",blan k);

Be more descriptive in the future.

Don't forget to reverse the polarities first.

Whats not to get, I need people to navigate the internet from within a swf.
So if they are using the swf from a website there main browser would stay at the same page but they could nav from inside of the flash.

I need to build a flash internet browser basicly.

Why can't you direct them to a website?

You need a flash website?

Or litterly a browser like FireFox/Opera/IE? But made in Flash? Cuz you could like...I dunno....You could try google....but errr, I don't know scripting, and if you don't know even how to start...I doubt you know as well...

Good luck.

I laugh because almost all of your inhabitants are slaves to this substance you refer to as currency.

If you don't know how to, don't ask.
This is something very difficult and you're obviously not experienced enough.
I don't even know if it's possible.

Good luck.

Even if you somehow get this to work, you won't be able to display anything more than basic HTML and CSS. Anything that requires a plugin besides other Flash movies (like Java, Unity, ect) just can't be parsed/displayed remotely efficently in AS3.

What you want is PHP (a programming language) and the cURL extension.

Then with some CSS & some other coding you can browse other websites through your website and change or highlight whatever you want... but this is more of a programming question if you go that route.

There's very little point (though you probably could do it), in programming a browser in a .SWF simply because a .SWF is run from a browser.

if u want something really basic that requires alot of work you can use the flash code to import text within text files on the internet. it only works for text though and the 'site' wouldnt be dynamic, probably wouldnt be possible to format it either

Basicly I just need a browser in a page so people can surf the internet w/ out leaving my site.
I'm asuming building a browser in a swf w/ a address bar would be the easyiest way.

Why would people want to do that? I don't think you've thought this through...

Though it is flash, you do use a 3rd party software with it. So it is possible. Sorta.
I dunno.

Well there's this thing called Firefox, it works pretty well.

It's like an internet browser (I think)

I heard you can use it to access the World Wide Web (www)

Its like your idea of internet within the flash, but it would be easier to just use the internet not in flash.

Dumb idea.
