Actionscript 2.0 (AS2)
On the top level Button or MovieClip apply following actionscript:
on (release) {
getURL(_root.clickTAG, '_blank');
}
Or you can also do it by MovieClip or Button instance name:
click_btn_name.onRelease = function(){
getURL(_root.clickTAG, '_blank');
}
If you still have problems download this sample FLA file (Flash CS3):
