I have s lide down menu set and it has a bar with sections as the menu that separates into section that have names that can be pressed like button but are not physical button themselves so i dont know how to make them link to urls

here is that the code that gives their names:

set("\_root.menu1.link1.theTitle",“Home”);  
set("\_root.menu1.link2.theTitle",“Gallery”);  
set("\_root.menu1.link3.theTitle",“Forums”);  
set("\_root.menu1.link4.theTitle",“Search”);  
set("\_root.menu1.link5.theTitle",“Your Account”);  
set("\_root.menu1.link6.theTitle",“Submit News”);

anyone got an idea on what code i would have to add to that to make those link1, link2 … all go to separate urls?

here is a screenshot of what the menu looks like:

um, wouldnt you just add an on(release) event handler to them?

```php

_root.menu1.link2.onRelease = function(){
getURL ('whatever')
}

```

I mean, that’s what I would do…
