onClick buttons in Actionscript 3
Actions are no longer applied directly to buttons in Actionscript 3. Instead all code can be placed on the main timeline. For a basic getURL you first createa function, then you add an Event Listener to the button instance. Code below:
———————————————–
function gotoPage(event:MouseEvent):void
{
var targetURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest(“http://www.sitedesignmagazine.com/”);
navigateToURL(targetURL,’_self’);
}
skip_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,gotoPage);
———————————————–
Replace skip_btn with the instance name of your own button.
NOTE: For some reason WordPress converts my quotes (both single and double) to smart quotes or whatever. You will need to change those when you paste or you’ll get syntax errors.
