on (release) {  
getURL(“[http://www.front.htm](http://www.front.htm)”,"\_blank");  
}

this doesn’t work for me because i can’t use an “on-” function without specifying the variable, ie, mybutton, myobject etc.

is my button itself fudg-y i wonder? can anyone think of anything i might be missing or something i might be including that’s wronging it?

also, i’m new to the forum, and i’m gonna take a guess that three posts back to back is about the limit before people start losing interest and getting annoyed, so thanks for your patience guys…

thanks  
z 😊
