This is easy if you use FlashMX or other flash not swish

Well here is the code

```auto
on (release) {
    getURL("http://www.coolazz0.geosters.com/board", _blank);
    // The http:// Part is the url of your website
    // The blank part is the window type do you want to open it in a new window basically is what it mean
}
{

```

Remember you can replace the url…  
With yours.  
The URL in there already is mine…Go there and ill answer all kinds of questions…

Hey Alex, if you are using Swish… why do you post all your questions in the Flash MX section?

Swish and Flash MX are 2 completely different programs.

Well by the error it is telilng you that you can only use on handlers for buttons (and movie clips in MX).

It seems you are putting the on (release) code on a frame instead of on a button or movie clip.
