Dreamweaver Help - Flash Buttons

[Necron]

Hi, i'm an A level student doing a course in ICT.

We've been asked to make an e-book using Dreamweaver, including links and buttons etc... Now, apparently we can score more marks by creating our own Flash Buttons.

Anyway, i've made a button using Flash, and after putting it into Dreamweaver, i can't seem to link it. There's just no link option anywhere. I've searched on countless sites using Google, and still no luck. Can anyone help?

To note - using the pre-made flash buttons that are in Dreamweaver are fine, you just double click the button and then change the link, however i just don't know how to do it with custom buttons.


Any help is much appreciated.

I'd probably go into edit source and wrap the button (I presume an img tag) with anchor tags (a) then see what dreamweaver thinks about it

you'd have to embed it like any other flash object.

I looked at that site, and read about the code. Dreamweaver automatically embeds the flash object, so i don't think that's the problem. The button functions fine, e.g, when i highlight it, it changes, and when i click on it, it changes again. However, i just simply cannot find the 'link' option anywhere. All the other buttons that Dreamweaver create have a simple 'link' button in the properties bar.

you have to code it into the flash. 'on mouse down, page load whatever' or whatever flash does.
