hello there ....

this might work for ya ...

This is how it used to work in version 5 of our production tools.  We now
use the file rmevents.exe under the /program files/realproducer directory
to do the same type of thing.  It will allow you to spawn a web page and
even target the frame you wish to spawn it in.  Good Luck.

1. Using a text editor, create an input events file (explained below)
specifying the display time for each URL, title, author or copyright event.

2. After creating a text version of the input events file, you must
generate an output presentation file. This is done with the rmmerge.exe
tool that comes with RealEncoder 5.0 and RealPublisher 5.0. To do this, use
the following syntax:

rmmerge -f rmevents <event file> <input media file> <output media file>

where:
<event file> is the input events file created in the previous step
<input media> file is your input .rm file
<output file > is the resulting synchronized presentation file

For example:

rmmerge -f rmevents events.txt audio_video.rm output.rm

Creating a input events file
Begin by creating a list of the URLs, titles, authors, or copyrights that
you want to be shown during your presentation and the times within
RealAudio or RealVideo clip when they should be displayed. The syntax for
each entry should follow the format (with a space between each part of the
command):

                  u starttime endtime EventURL
                  i starttime endtime Title
                  a starttime endtime Author
                  c starttime endtime Copyright

where:
u stands for URL event; each line starts with the letter u
i stands for title; each line starts with the letter i
a stands for author; each line starts with the letter a
c stands for copyright; each line starts with the letter c
starttime is the time into the clip when the new event is shown
endtime is the time into the clip when that event ends
EventURL (generally beginning with "http:" or "file:") is the Internet
address for that event (usually an HTML document)

The time for starttime and endtime is:
[[[days:]hours:]minutes:]seconds[.tenths]

The lines of the input file must be in ascending order of start time. The
end time should be at least one tenth of a second before the start time of
the next event. The following example shows how an input file might look:
u 00:00:10.0 00:00:59.9 http://www.real.com/
u 00:01:00.0 00:02:00.0 http://www.mysite.com/page2/

This input file tells RealPlayer to send the Web browser to the
RealNetworks home page ten seconds into the audio clip. One minute into the
audio clip, the Web browser displays a page from "www.mysite.com".

The input file may also contain comment lines beginning with the # symbol.
These comment lines are ignored by the event creation tool and are a good
way to document the date that the file was created and the type of
information found on each page.

Try this and let me know.
