Trying to add a button on a flv embedded intro

I have a regular button below temporarily but I'm trying to add a skip intro button within the flash itself. I've tried using methods that have worked on other flash projects but those aren't working.

I tried this code with no luck so I'm hoping someone else has something that will work.

monkey_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDownHandler);
function mouseDownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
    navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://www.flashthusiast.com/"));
}
