Hello,  
I am making a story that on everyline you roll over it gets bigger and and there is a yellow background I got that so far and on the story there are certain words that are in blue which when the user clicks on them it should get them to a certain page but I can’t get this to work, what im saying is that to call a url only works when you press a MC that is on the main frame but when the MC is inside another MC it won’t do nothing, I’ll make it a little bit more clear

this is a MC (MC1)

++++++++  
++++++++  
++++++++

if I put on the MC above :

on(press){  
getURL(“[http://www.kirupa.com](http://www.kirupa.com)”);  
}

## This will work

but if I make another MC inside MC1 and put the same script in the new MC it will not work how do I make it work?
