Hi,  
I have created an animated flash banner. I want to link the banner to a web site on click over the banner.This is my script over the banner:  
on (release) {  
getURL(“[http://www.mysite.com](http://www.mysite.com/)”, “\_blank”);  
}

But I don’t want to write the code in flash as I want to give the link in html.  
Is it possible to link swf files using “a href …” like any other images in html?  
Any help will be appreciated.
