    get url for movie clip?

    Hi
    I know you can use the following code to make a button access a URL on release:

    Code:
    on (release) {
    	getURL("url.com");
    }
    Just wondering if there is any other code or actionscript you can put on a movie clip so that on release, it accomplished the same thing?

    sure, you would give the movieclip an instance name on the properties bar, then on the main timeline put:

    PHP Code:
    mcInstanceName.onRelease = function(){
         
    getURL("url.com");

    cool thanks... I did that... still get this error

    **Error** Scene=Scene 1, layer=Layer 1, frame=1:Line 1: Statement must appear within on/onClipEvent handler
    mc1.onRelease = function() {

    but it works?

    sounds like you put my code on a movieclip rather than on the timeline.
