Links In flash? - Please help

i am trying to make a ‘links’ section on my site. i tried to make buttons but it is not working the way i want. i colored the buttons and when i test movie its gray?

thanks

Can you post an example .fla file?

Flash doesn’t usually change the color of an object unless you tell it to :-\

i cant put the file up becaus its on my site

on (release) {
getURL(“site here”, _blank);
// The http:// Part is the url of your website
// The blank part is the window type do you want to open it in a new window basically is what it mean
}
{

this is what i have

another thing is when i go to click on the link it doesnt work?

I think _blank has to be encased in quotes… like this…

on (release){
getURL("yourFile.html", "_blank");
}

ok i will try that…
thanks for your help

its saying something about exporting the buttons. im confused:(

Copy and paste the error message you are recieving in a post. Maybe I can see whats wrong though that.

ok
This movie uses features that are not supported in flash 5

but in the output box it was saying something about exporting but when ever i tried to copy and paste it wouldnt work and by the time it stoped loading the out put box changed to something else

Ok I think I know the problem.

Go to File/Publish Settings.

I think there is a tab that says “Flash”

And a drop down menu that says “Version”

It will probably say Flash 5, change it to Flash 6, then save your file.

You are using code that isn’t supported with Flash 5, but Flash is reading that you want to export your file as Flash 5, so it won’t let you use the MX code.
