Your Royal Great Gawds of Flash-stuff, can you please help me..... :)

I am trying to use the tree component as a menu for a site I'm building. Can't find anything dhtml-y that seemingly works as nicely as the tree component but I can't find the code -anywhere- that says 'when user pushes wee little button, a simple html page appears' :( . i am using this in a frame setup :o (go ahead-laugh and snicker) because i need all the screen space i can get (tons of graphs, text and images).

So can you point me to a tutorial or just tell me the link syntax???

Many thanks for all of your help!!!! :cool:

I'm not sure about your question. I understood you wanna know how to use a tree entry as an url, don't you?
If this is your question:
I suppose your using an xml document as dataprovider. If so, the parameter name you are looking for is url.
By example:

<node label="mytree">
<node label="Macromedia">
<node label="Flash" url="http://www.macromedia.com/..." />
</node>
</node>

Hope this help. If not let me know it.
Regards.
