try

var urls:Array = ["page1","page2","page3","page4","page5","page6","page7"];
var count:Number = 1;
var easeSpeed:Number = 6;
var val:MovieClip = but1;
while (_root["but"+count]) {
    _root["but"+(count)].id=count, _root["but"+(count++)].onPress=function () {
        val=_root["but"+this.id], getURL("./"+urls[this.id-1]+".html", target);
    };
}
ease.onEnterFrame = function() {
    this._x += (val._x-ease._x)/easeSpeed;
};

You will need to change target, I haven’t test it at all, so let me know if it’s wrong

ok i will try after work to get it going thanks for the reply, i gather by targets you mean “page1” and so on.

thanks
