    you have to create a button and on hit action you can to point to your link
    - the better way to do it is convert your graphics in to a movie clip add an instance name and you add action script.
    name.onPress = function()
    {

    Get URL ("http://echoecho.com", window="_blank")


    }

    Actually the Complete Script is this.

    on (release) {
    getURL("http://Your URL.com");
    }

    or if its a frame you want the button to navigate to.

    gotoAndPlay(1);

    Where 1 is the Frame number. And if you want to go to the Next Scene, it would be.

    nextScene();

    Well tell me something. That whether your links are all directed to some place in a single movie or are you focusing on URLs?

    No worries mate. Leave the thread as it is. If it won't get spammed, it would die away anyways.
