[F8] Making a movie clip into a button or link?

[j_coleman]

I have a movie clip that's used to show an email address. The reason I made it a movie clip was so that I could animate via actionscript.

The problem I'm having is a way to be able to click on that mc to make the regular mailto: feature work. Pretty much I want to make it a link. Any suggestions?

Hi
Put these actions on the clip you want acting as a button:

code:

---

on (release) {

	getURL("mailto:someone@somewhere.com");

}

---

You will need to test in a browser.

Awesome, that works great.

Thanks a lot.
