linking flash buttons in dreamweaver
I'm new to flash 5 and just finished my first button (hurray). Once I get the button in Dreamweaver MX is there a way to link it to another page using DW, or must I use Flash for the link? I know I can use Insert Flash Buttons provided by DW, I'd prefer to create my own, but often I don't know the address of the link until I'm in DW.
Thanks,
JTN

You can also build Flash buttons directly in Dreamweaver and it is all automated.

But can I use DW to link a flash button I made in Flash to another page or site or must I set the link in Flash when initially creating the button?
Thanks

No, you have to do it all in the Flash animation and set the up/down/click options for the button to send you to the desired web site.
