The only way I am aware of this being doen is by actually creating a transparent button within the flash movie itself, pointing that to your URL. You may also be able to do it with JS, but I don't know JS so I am not sure.

ya i think the only way to do it is to do it in flash. a friend made me a flash thing for my site and i wanted it linked somewhere. i couldnt find any way to get it to link there and then i asked him and he did it in flash. so i think the only way to do it is in flash

"by actually creating a transparent button within the flash movie itself, pointing that to your URL" - how can i do that.. the problem is that the link is held in a mysql database. and may be different from time to time.. so how can i make the target listen to ?clickTAG...

Just add this to your button:


===================
on (release) {
if (clickTAG.substr(0,5) == "http:") {
getURL(clickTAG);
}
}

===================


Then the code you have above should work. Anytime you cahnge the URL in the EMBED SRC area, it should go to that location.

Hope this helps.
