Flash, on button click navigate to some URL

[xandeq]

Hi there,

I'm using Actionscript 3.0.
I have 3 layers on my stage.
The button is the last object to show on stage.
So i put the following action on its last frame:

stop();
function Example(s:Stage)
{
this.stageReference = s;
entrar_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDownHandler);
function mouseDownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
var link:URLRequest = new URLRequest("www.google.com");
navigateToURL(link);
}
}


It shows me no ERROR on compilation or execution.
BUT it doesnt open/navigate/redirect to the URL.

somebody please help.

Thank you.

Where do you call Example(); function? Why do you need that function?
If you need only to navigate to URL why don't you use just this?

stop();
entrar_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDownHandler);
function mouseDownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
{
var link:URLRequest = new URLRequest("www.google.com");
navigateToURL(link);
}

Why do you need this Example() function? Where do you call that function?
If you need just to navigate to URL why don't you simplify it like this:


stop();
entrar_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDownHandler);
function mouseDownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
{
var link:URLRequest = new URLRequest("www.google.com");
navigateToURL(link);
}
