Url buttons

I am new to this (obviously) and I am having troubles with a button that is suppose to link one url to another. when ever I make a button- the “on mouse event” is blanked out where I cant use the script. I then delee the old one make a new one and I can use the “on mouse event”; but when I export the movie and test it in a browser enviroment, it doesnt work.
I know this is a long question- but thanks

wut is the code on your button? what are you trying to open using that button? and are yous ure you are creating a button the first time? because it should not be blacked out if it truly is a button.

You have to put the absolute path to make it work on the net.

yes- I am sure it is a button- I can edit it as a button, and the 'instance" states it as a button.
but the “on mouse event” is still blanked out…
sigh

Take the black arrow tool, click on something else, anything you want, then click back on your button and press Ctrl + Shift + A. If you can’t open the on mouse events, send a letter to macromedia, or post the fla.

PS : You have to see OBJECT ACTIONS PANEL and not FRAME ACTIONS PANEL written.
