Layer Button
How do i add a link to a button in macromedia flash?

I am VERY new to flash....and I have some text, which i converted to a button. i tried using the getURL function like this:
on (release)
{
getURL("http://www.yahoo.co.uk", "_parent");
}

but i get these errors..:

**Error** Scene=Scene 1, layer=button, frame=126:Line 1: Mouse events are permitted only for button instances
on (release)

**Error** Symbol=Symbol 3, layer=Layer 1, frame=1:Line 1: ')' or ',' expected
getURL(http://www.yahoo.co.uk);

i have no idea what's wrong...please help!

on (release) {
getURL("url.htm", "_parent");
}

Your coding is correct. make sure you are connected to the internet because your link is to the web. When linking to another file make sure the file is in the same folder.

I would try linking to an html page within the same folder as your flash movie. This should work.

1. What is MP4 video?
MP4 is short for Moving Picture Expert Group-4. First published in 1998, MPEG-4 or MP4 was designed to encompass all the features that were part of earlier releases of MPEG files, and add a few more that would prove helpful with the advancing online technology of the day. So the MP4 video is using MPEG file format as a storage to store the video. MP4 video such as iTunes video can be stored in your PSP, iPod, iPhone, Mobile phone and other hardware or software that supports MP4 files.

2. Why should we burn MP4 video?
MP4 is only one of the video formats, so it doesn't fit all of the players we use. If you want to play a MP4 video on a big screen by your DVD player, you need to convert mpeg4 to dvd. And people always want to share the things they appreciate with others, if you can create your own DVD which can be kept for a life time, you can freely share it with anybody you want.

3. How to burn MP4 video to DVD?
Aimersoft DVD creator solves this problem by its easy but useful functions. You can create your own DVD with this good tool. Just follow these steps to burn mp4 to dvd:

step1. Download and follow the installation wizard to install Aimersoft DVD Creator (Note, you need a DVD Burner to burn DVD, so make sure your DVD Drive has DVD+RW or DVD-RW symbol).

Here to download: http://www.dvd-creator.org/dvd-creator/

Step2. Run Aimersoft DVD Creator, click "Load Video" button to import the MP4 videos, then click "add to slideshow" button to add them to storyboard. If you want to burn MP4 videos to dual-layer DVD (DVD-9), at the bottom of the interface, select "DVD-R 9.0G", you can also customize video quality there. And the used disc space is shown on the disc space bar underneath the storyboard.

Step3. If you want to give your DVD more fantastic effects, you can choose the video and click "edit" to make your DVD different from others'. You can crop, select effect, trim, add watermark and plug in subtitle as what are shown on the following picture.

Step4. After editing the videos, you can click "Burn" tab, it will begin to create your own DVD.

Tip: this software can also convert and burn all common media formats.
