Simple question… What is the code to add to a button to have the button open up an email window when the button is clicked. For example the email would be [info@testing.com](mailto:info@testing.com) and when you click on that button it opens up a email window to email that person through whatever email program the user has on their computer. I know how to do this in HTML obviously with the [mailto:info@testing.com](mailto:info@testing.com) but I don’t know how to do it in Flash so any help would be greatly appreciated!
