Banner connected to email address.

[wrighty85]

Hi,
I have designed my first flash banner that when clicked on, goes to a website.
I would like this changed so that when the banner is clicked on, an email can
be sent. eg. the banner would be showing advertising space and an email could
be sent to my email address from interested parties. Is this possible?
Thanks in advance.

Which version of actionscript are you using?

For AS2.0:
getURL("mailto:anyone@anywhere.com");

For AS3.0:


var email:URLRequest = new URLRequest("mailto:anyone@anywhere.com");

//listens for mouse click and runs clickHandler when it hears it
email_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickHandler);

//what to do when button is clicked
function clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
{
navigateToURL(email);
}

Many thanks for your reply.
Im using AS3.0. I have attached the code in the 'Actions' script but still no joy.

Any ideas?
Thanks.

Where did you place the code and do you have a button with the instance name that matches the one in the code? Please post your code, thanks.
