I keep getting a syntax error when I try to add a link to my button. The error says:
ERROR: Scene 1, Layer1, Frame 1, Instance of ‘Symbol 2′, Line 3: Syntax error.
getURL(
Symbol 2 is the actual button itself. I did exactly what you said to do…any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Dear Cyndi,
Did you copy the following ActionScript to your project from this blog?
on(release)
{
getURL(”http://www.sothink.com”);
}
I suggest you not to do so. Please new a Quicker project, and repeat to do the above step1 and 2 again, and in the step3, please write down the above ActionScript manually in the Action panel.
Just try again, you will find this time is OK

I did exactly as you said, only not on a rectangle but on an image I imported and converted to a button, and it doesn’t work.
When I preview the file, nothing happens when I press it (though it does show the “hand” icon as if it’s linkable).
What could be the problem?
