    Okay, hopefully my FINAL problem. My website, http://www.geocities.com/unclemeatpockets plays its flash video flawlessly. However, I cannot get the buttons to link to the appropriate pages. As of now, only one button is supposed to link to http://www.geocities.com/unclemeatpockets/button.htm .I have the object actions as mouseevent and release is checked. Now, do I want to use telltarget or goto? Thanks again!

    If you want the button to open a new html page then you need to use the GetURL action

    something like the below where "mynextpage.html" is the page to open and its in the same directory as the flash movie.

    getURL ("mynextpage.html", "_self");
    to open in the same window

    getURL ("mynextpage.html", "_blank");
    for a new window
