Hi i am wondering how to get a button i have created to link to an Iframe in my web site? I think it will have something to do with the get URL command, but then I do not know how to make it link to my Iframe.

Thanks,  
Ryan

It doesn’t necessarily have to be a button symbol, it could be a movieclip symbol as well. 😛

Eg is right… I use movieclips instead of buttons…

It’s cleaner that way :beam:
