Here is my problem, hope you can help.

In my flash program, i have different buttons, it is like an intro to the rest of my html site. I dont know how i make the buttons inside of the flash script load an internet page. Hope you understand what I am asking…

</div>

```auto
myButton.onRelease = function() {
getURL("http://www.mysite.com", "_self");
};

```

where _myButton_ is the instance name of the Button to open the page. 😉
