To be able to make it a link, it has to be a button symbol so on the next frame after it finishes morphing, create a button symbol out of the text and apply this action to it:

```php
on (release){
	getURL("http://www.yourpage.com","_self");
}

```

Just replace the aboved URL with your URL and if you want it to open up in a new browser window then change \_self to \_blank.
