noobish button issue

I have an HTML page with a Flash splash containing two buttons.

The problem is a click on linux_bn sends me to "free_trial/index.html" when it should be going to "forms/register.php?continue[]=linux"

It seems like one button is hijacking the code for the other. When I removed the free_audit_mc code the linux button works. Anybody know what I'm doing wrong here? See my frame code below.


free_audit_mc.onMouseDown = function(){
getURL("free_trial/index.html", _self)
}

linux_bn.onMouseDown = function(){
getURL("forms/register.php?continue[]=linux", _self)
}

Is linux_bn within the movie clip?
If so any handlers set on mcs will override other actions on other symbols within that movie clip...

Use 2 buttons within the clip, and no mouseDown action on the clip itself.

I should have just attached this stripped version to take the guesswork out.

How should I rearrange this so it will work?

This :confused:

Hmmm very interesting Old Newbie Wan Kanobi. It seems to work just fine if you have the links open new windows. Unfortunately pop ups would be less than ideal in this situation.

Did you adjust anything besides "_self" to "_blank" ?

Well I added doubles quotes for one thing, and corrected your syntax on onRollOver and onRollOut and changed the mouseDown to an onRelease...

But if you use "_self", how will I be able to press on the button, rather than on the clip? Use the browser's back button?

Wow I must really be tired to not even see that! hahaha ok see the little guy in the footer? yeah uh huh that's me...
