Hi,

Flash buttons should probably be coded with actionscript in flash. You can use flash buttons in an HTML page and use some javascript to give the buttons the code you want, but in flash it is as easy as....

object code placed on the buttons...

on(release){
getURL("http://somesite.com","_blank");
}

Frame code for MX or higher

_root.btnName.onRelease=function(){
getURL("http://somesite.com","_blank");
}

• _self specifies the current frame in the current window.
• _blank specifies a new window.
• _parent specifies the parent of the current frame.
• _top specifies the top-level frame in the current window.

Now my question is: if you are using a Movie Clip for your buttons, how do you keep that clip going when you add a link? When I add a link it stops...

Hi,

A button event on a movieclip should have no effect on the motion of the movieclip. It is most likely an issue with how you have the motion coded for the movieclip. Post a code sample.
