Hi all… it seemed like a simple process but I cant seem to get this right… I got a button there, but the URL wont go, ie, the click does nothing.
I imported a PSD layered image to Flash CS3, into a new blank layer. I need basically an area of this PSD to be “image mapped” so what I did was create a rectangle with the rect tool, over the area I needed the hot spot.
Here I tried to do a transparent box and border (alpha 0) but the outline is still there even though the box is “empty.” (any quickie on this would be appreciated, I did select the transparent box, no color, and tried alpha, both same result)
I made that into a symbol, then I double clicked into there to fill in the key pts for the over, hit, etc., states… I dont have any effects here btw, as simple as we can get.
After that I right clicked on the buttonand entered the action script (“reserve” is the name of my button symbol)
reserve.onRelease=function(){
getURL(“http://www.redeggnyc.com/menu2.htm”);
}
which gave no errors on validation.
When I preview in Flash, everything looks good except the thin black border and the fact that when the button is pressed, nothing happens. I am assuming this is a little mistake somewhere, or maybe I am just tired! Thanks!
