    Click on your flash button, look at the windows properties, find link then type your link or point to folder icon to make link directly

    The easiest way is to write them inside the Flash using actionscript. Just remove the silly target="blank" junk Adobe likes to add in by default.

    But if you don't have access to the flash, you might be able to wrap an anchor around it. Assuming your Flash is properly an <object> (it'd better be), you can do this:

    <a href="theurl">
    <object>
    all the flash junk
    </object>
    </a>

    Object can be a valid child of an anchor.

    You cannot give links in dream weaver for a flash button...

    Create a flash button in flash and select the button and enter the following script in actions panel

    replace the web address with your own & omit the //

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

    Thats it...

    Depends on the version of Flash, but we have CS3 and that code works with our banners, which are Actionscript 3.

    Just remove the s*&%$$^id target="_blank"crap. Quit forcing people's browsers to open a new window, it's rude. Curse Adobe for adding that junk by default. Shame on them.
