Simple Button Help

[Still Learning]

I have recently read and practiced the instructions given in "Buttons in Flash" tutorial on this site, and although everything works beautifully it does not give me the code for linkage i.e. either external website or mail.

The existing code is:
function setupEvents() {
// associate events with event handlers
myButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickButtonHandler);
myButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, hoverButtonHandler);
}
setupEvents();
function clickButtonHandler(e:MouseEvent) {
//trace("Clicked Button!");
outputField.text = "Clicked";
}
function hoverButtonHandler(e:MouseEvent) {
//trace("Hovered Over Button!");
outputField.text = "Hovered";
}

How do I include the relevant behaviours to these buttons?

I would appreciate your URGENT advises.

Thank you in advance.

What behaviors do you mean?

Opening a website:

navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://kirupa.com"), "_blank");

Opening the default e-mail program:

navigateToURL(new URLRequest("mailto:my@email.com?subject=Some subject&body=Some text"), "_blank");

You a darling. Quick on though, do I not need to apply some script for this to happen with the "hit button"?

Sorry, I realise this is obviously a very simple process but I myself am at a loss. Whatever happened to just applying a behaviour as in Flash 8?

I would appreciate you assistance.

Behaviour as in Macromedia's definition of an action linked to an element without the need of scripting it yourself?

Anyways, when using the code you supplied before:

function setupEvents() {
// associate events with event handlers
myButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickButtonHandler);
myButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, hoverButtonHandler);
}
setupEvents();
function clickButtonHandler(e:MouseEvent) {
//trace("Clicked Button!");
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://kirupa.com"), "_blank");
outputField.text = "Clicked";
}
function hoverButtonHandler(e:MouseEvent) {
//trace("Hovered Over Button!");
outputField.text = "Hovered";
}
