adding href code to my flash movie

[kathyc20]

I'm just a newbie, so don't get mad at me, but I've
created a small flash file and I need to have the
whole thing become a link that if you click on it
you will go to a certain page, and I have no idea
how to do this.

Can someone please help me.

if the whole thing is a movie clip or a button then right click it and select actions

paste this code

on (release){
getURL("

http://www.yahoo.com",_blank)

}

if the whole thing is not a movie clip or a button post again

It isn't a movie or a button.

If you're talking of the whole of the Flash movie itself that should be the link, then you could use an invisible button over the whole stage area, and add somewhat the same code Bill suggested but as it stands here with the correct syntax...

on(release){
    getURL("[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.yahoo.com/",[/URL] "_blank");
}

If you want the linked page to open up in the same browser window rather than in a new one, use "_self" rather than "_blank".
