im sorry if i didnt make my post clear, what i ment was i am making a banner type flash where it just keeps going and going, and i have two banners in it, one for my site and one for another site. i want the one for the other site to be a hyperlink(i.e. a button to get to their site) so that when people click on the other sites banner part, it sends people to his website

I think I understand, try this and see if it helps, the easiest way for you to do this I think as follows;
first you have to make an invisible button over the banner,
so this would be on a top of all the layers,
so create a layer on top of all the other layers and name it "invisible button" , then
1=click on rectangle tool and draw a box same size as the stage size you are using, then hit F8 on keyboard, click on the button radio and name it "link", click OK,
2= double click on the button you've just created
3= where you see a keyframe on the "up" state, click on the keyframe and hold and DRAG it to the "hit" state, let go and and clik OK
4= click on the button you've created (just once), and hit F9 on your keyboard
5 = write down the following code ;

on (release) {
getURL("http://www.etw-design.com", "_blank");
}

6= ctrl+enter on keyboard to test the movie and see if that works !

obviously you'd have to change the website from mine to yours :-)

hope this answers ....
stay cool...
