I’ve just made my own buttons in flash, how do I import them into dreamweaver so they are selectable buttons and they are easy to link?

all help will be appreciated, :phil:

[EDIT]

Also what am I doing wong with this button? you’ll see when you preview it, that when you put your mouse pointer in the middle of the button, it opens up, but only half way, the full button does’nt seem to work…is it becasue of the text?

Here. The button wasnt working because the text inside it was set as input text.

You have to set that action inside flash.  
Click on the button, hit F9 and insert this code:[AS]on (release) {  
getURL(URL, window);  
}[/AS]
