Creating a Hyperlink in a Flash Website

[mermaid*]

Hi,

I am trying to create a hyperlink using a button object with the following action script:

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

This works fine when I run the .swf move file and opens the requested page in a new window. However when I embed the movie in html and click the link, I get no response at all. I don't get an error message or anything, but nothing happens when I click the button area.

I am wondering if this is related to a browser setting that I may have to change? Or is there a line of code in my html that I need to include to get this working?

Any ideas would be highly appreciated!

Thanks,

Kate

remove " " for the _blank and try.

also check if you have a pop-up blocker on

Hi,

I'm getting the same problem. My links don't work when I've my movie embedded in html but if I just run the swf file it works fine.

I've turned off my pop-up stopper but still no good.

I'm guessing its something to do with IE, but I'm not sure what.

Can anyone help please ?
