on click anywhere within flash takes visitor to URL

[jasonc]

i have tried to add an action to a background but this did not work it just opens the URL on load of the flash movie.

 

how do i get it to open only if clicked on the flash movie.

if you're not going to have any other buttons besides the "click anywhere"

create a button with the same size of the flash movie and place the code

 

on(press) {
getURL("http://www.genuine-ptcs.com");
}

 

the button's shape should be alpha 0% so you can see the background

 

if you're going to have more buttons on the stage

then you have to look into mouse events
