Hi All,

Is it possible to load an URL as a variable?

I have a site which load several variables from a txt file. Can I add a websiteadress so whenever I click that var I’m automatacally redirected to that site?

Thanks!

That’s a real good question…

Actually I mean making just one button with a hyperlink. If you pushed earlier in the website on button1 you’ll be redirected to website1, of you pushed button2 you’ll be connected to site2 etc.
