You need to use ExternalInterface. Call JS function window.open with next arguments:

ExternalInterface.call("window.open", 'http://stackoverflow.com','winname', 
'directories=no,titlebar=no,toolbar=no,location=no,status=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,width=400,height=350');

Replace all of your code that you have shown with my code. – Daniil Subbotin Apr 17 '15 at 13:00
That does nothing, there is no errors but no page is opening? – Ben Thomas-Graham Apr 17 '15 at 13:05
Do you embed the SWF file in the HTML? – Daniil Subbotin Apr 17 '15 at 13:17
Is there no way to do this in Adobe Flash just using Actionscript 3? – Ben Thomas-Graham Apr 17 '15 at 14:09
What do? Embed SWF or open new window? – Daniil Subbotin Apr 17 '15 at 14:22
Can i remove all the scrolbars and everything just using actionscript in flash? – Ben Thomas-Graham Apr 17 '15 at 14:23
You can do it only by using ExternalInterface. – Daniil Subbotin Apr 17 '15 at 14:33
Oh ok, is external interface done in flash or another program? – Ben Thomas-Graham Apr 17 '15 at 14:47
If you want to use an ExternalInterface you should click “Publish Settings...” and check HTML and SWF. Next, click File > Publish and open generated HTML in the browser. – Daniil Subbotin Apr 17 '15 at 14:54
