Hiya ...

it's one of those "Duh" kind of "Why didn't I think of that" errors.

Impossible until you post it up here and someone like me posts the answer ...

WRONG: getURL(http://www.urbanflavours.com.au);

RIGHT :getURL("http://www.urbanflavours.com.au");

p.s. As it's a banner, you might want to change it to this ...

getURL("http://www.urbanflavours.com.au", "_blank");

... which will make the link open in a new window.

Hope that helps. Good luck

Hiya ...

Make a new layer on your fla. Draw a rectangle (any colour, doesn't matter) that fills the stage and convert it to a button.

Double click on the button to get into it's timeline and note that the rectangle is in the "UP" key frame. Select this frame and drag it to the "HIT" frame. This will make the button invisible.

Now, back on your main timeline, select the buitton and put the following code on it ...

on (release)
{
getURL("http://www.urbanflavours.com.au", "_blank");
}

Ta-daah!

(hope that both makes sense and helps)
