Hi all, i have made my intro, and it's all good now, but how do i have something at the end that, when clicked on, will lead to another flash page?

Hi redzero,

Why not try a "enter" button. just make it appear at the end of your intro
(or anywhere you want really), then use 1 of two options...depending on what
you want to do..

1) -- If you already have the "another flash page" done, complete with the
HTML file, you would want this...

enterBtn.onRelease = function(){
getURL("your_html_page_name.html");
}

2) -- if you want to load your "another Flash page" into your intro.swf,
(into a emptyMovieClip inside your intro) you could use this...

enterBtn.onRelease = function(){
var my_loader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
my_loader.loadClip("another_flash_page.swf", holder);
}

NOTE:
you must create a empty MovieClip on stage, and give it an instance name of
"holder" without the quotes " ".
This empty movieClip will hold your "another Flash Page".

the first line creates a MovieClipLoader instance, and calls it my_loader.
this is what loads your files.

Also, this also allows you to have a pre-loader with only afew more lines of
code.

Let me know if you get stuck, and i'll help in any way i can.
