i have this flash piece on my intro page where i write out the word ‘enter’, hopefully invoking the user to click it. I thought after bringing it into dreamWeaver. I would simplly draw an invisible image map around the word to enable the link…well—I have discovered that won’t work.

So for now I’ve just made a regular link (that I wish wasn’t there) to open the new window. Anyone see a way around this???

yeah, make an invisible button and place it over the stage.

you can’t use img tags with Flash aminations…

…you guys must think i’m an idiot!

Of course a button within flash:blush:

I had thought of this, but didn’t think the embeded flash file would activate the pop-up window to my site. I guess I should have tried that first.

Thanks for your help
