AS 3: AS3 button link query

[jjmu15]

Hi guys,

I am a total newbie to flash and actionscript which may be a blessing in some ways as I don't have to re-learn my ways from previous versions.

I am not doing too bad with figuring it out as I go along but for the life of me I can't figure this out.

Basically, I have converted an image into a button and am using the following code to use it as an external link.

home_mc.myspace_logo.addEventListener(MouseEvent.C LICK, myspace_l);

//create a function to react to the myspace listener
function myspace_l(evtObj:MouseEvent){
//trace to show myspace_logo was clicked
trace("the "+evtObj.target.name+" button was clicked!")
// load external url to the myspace page for RHC
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://www.myspace.com/redhotchilipeppers"));
}


This works fine which is great but I would like for it to display information about the link when the user hovers their mouse over the button. How would I do this?

Thanks in advance for any help

Inside your buttons, you can insert a new layer on the timeline then add information on the overstate of the button.
