Hi there,

I have created a movie clip (i named it **button** ) then dragged 2 instances on stage and named each one differently.

After that I attached the following action script on each (i have only changed the line where it has the getURL in order to point to a different URL):

```auto

onClipEvent(load){
 var dir=0;
 var clicked=0;
 
 this.onRollOver = function(){
  dir=1;
 }
 this.onRollOut = function(){
  dir=-1;
 }
 this.onMouseDown = function(){
  this.getURL("[http://www.saudiaramco75.com/","_blank](http://www.saudiaramco75.com/)");
 }
}
 
onClipEvent(enterFrame){
 if(dir==1){
  this.nextFrame();
  _root.text_0.nextFrame();
 }else if(dir==-1){
  this.prevFrame();
  _root.text_0.prevFrame();
 }
}
 

```

Now when i publish the main movie, the first URL gets openned by just clicking on the main stage and not the button it self!!! Why is that happenning !!?

I have attached the source code.

Really appreciate your help guys!
