I have made a few movies in flash some with text and som with images all of them are exported as flash movies with the file name .swf.
I would like to make these movies clickable on my web site so when you click them you go to a new page. Do i do this in flash or do I do it afterwards in Dreamweaver.? I guess there are som coding involved.
I allso wonder how to make a specific region of a flash movie as a link to a web page for example a text next to slideshow.

have a look at the Flash tutorial on buttons and actionscripting, you should be able to find everything you need there.
Good luck!

Erra, you can create an url in flash at any time.

the basics:

Image Url:

Convert an image into a symbol.
Choose movie
Then right click on image
Choose "Actions"
Then click "+"
Choose "Basic Actions"
And then click "Get Url"

Text Url:

Simply type in a word
Click on the word once
Then click that "A" *character* icon at the bottom right corner
Then type in an url in the url area field.

I hope this helped ya out.
