Step 1
- Text links, this step is very easy, we can add text link to a website via a simple text link.
- Type in a text using the A Tool and in the properties inspector you can add the full http patch or the website, or you can add a web page name if you want to link to a page within the same folder . You can set also the target as _blank if you want the website to open in a new browser window see fig 1.
Fig 1
- To link to an email address you need to enter mailto:name@domain.com see fig 2.
- To link content to a frame you need to specify the html file and frame name see fig 3.
Fig 3
- To link to an image or pdf file you need to enter the file name and specify “_blank“ to open the file in a new browser window.
Step 2
- We can link to website , web page and emails from buttons using GetURL function in actionscript.
- Cho0se the button and in the actionscript panel enter the following script: see fig 4.
Fig 4
- To link to an email address in the same way, prefixing it with mailto: see fig 5

I’m not competent enough in Flash to use a component, so this kind of product is ideal. All I ask is that, once I’ve paid for it (and price isn’t a problem, within reason) I can create what I want. Extensive Google searching has drawn a blank, but maybe I’m using the wrong terms.In addition, both aXmag.com and Issuu.com are good choice.
