You know when you make a hyperlink in flash and upload it for your website. The hyperlink is hard to hit because you have to click on the little text. So is there a way to make the area your clicking bigger?  
thanks

Yes. In your button symbol, you need to use the Hit state. This isn’t visible in your movie, but it defines the area of the button. So if your button is text only, draw a filled box round it in the Hit state. Now when you publish, that area should be clickable. 🙂
