Hey ya. I am making a main page for a website based upon myself in flash. i am designing it to look like the main worlds of Mario Bros. 3…like a map. What I want to do is make a sprite of myself in place of Mario, and you move me around on the map to select the different links to learn more about me.

I know how to use movement by arrow keys, but I am looking to see if there is a way that when the space bar is triggered, it will work the same as a mouse click, opening the links.

SO in a sense, you walk lil Ronche around, then click with the space bar to open the link. Sounds easy enough, I am just a lil stuck with the space bar portion and also with some hit detection, but I am mainly worried about the “clicking” thus far.

Thanks all for any and all help that you offer, and I apologize if I should I have posted this in a different part of the forums.

thanks again,  
ronche
