Alright, go to the stage that contains your main button symbol (not inside your button symbol, you \<B\>do not\</B\> want to see the standard button timeline of Up, Down, Over, Hit)

Right click on your button symbol and open the actions panel.

Apply this… (as Alex stated previously)…

[AS]on (press) {  
getURL(“url”, “\_blank”);  
}[/AS]
