Can you hyperlink a flash image? If so, how? I have created some flash images
and have tried to hyperlink them with no success and have gone as far as
creating a second layer with a clear gif in front of the flash image with a
hyperlink attached to the clear gif, but that has failed too. Any ideas?
Thanks. Chad
 
Can you hyperlink a flash image?

Yes, but only in the Flash Actionscript, not in the HTML.

Don't you think putting links on a Flash image is a bad idea, though? What
about people who do not have Flash?
 
Thank you. I was hoping that there would be an easy way to set the hyperlink
for future hyperlink quick changes. You are probably right about some people
not having flash enabled on their systems. Thanks for your help. Chad
 
Chad, you need to create the hyperlinks within the "Flash" file using
"Actions" on the object you want to be the hyperlink.
 
You're welcome.

The problem is that when your mouse is positioned over the Flash, HTML and
javascript are all out of the picture - you are now in "Flash space". This
means that mouse clicks or events never make it into the HTML part of
things.
