hitTarget()?

Im trying to identify which shape is being selected by the user when they press on the space bar (whilst the objects are constantly being individually highlighted), and then take the user to the corresponding page.

Does anyone know of a tutorial for anything similar ? My first instinct is to investigate using Flashes hitTarget() function… would this be a sensible route to take?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

See attached file if this makes little sense.
