I'm creating a flash document that is being displayed on my website, it has multiple layers. I would like to turn this document/image when displayed on my site as a click-able link. How would i do so?

I am not sure I follow. Did you try creating a button in your flash movie? Flash isn't like an image where you can place a "a href" tag around the outside of the whole thing like you can with images and text. So you will have to create an area in your flash movie like "Click Here for More Information" that would be a button, then link it to wherever you would like it to go.

ok, so take your flash movie, get it the way you want it and take a print screen and paste it into your photo editing program and save as an image, then make it a link in your HTML editing program.
Thanks

also, you can export your flash image as a gif, then you can just make it a href after  (go to file, export, export image, then select gif  )

How is it that the flash buttons I just added to my site work as links?
Are they miniature versions of a flash movie? They are not images like jpg or gif. They are .swf. But they work just as effectively as my hyperlinked images or gif / jpg buttons.
Does this relate to the first query of this thread?

dudibob...
I don't understand the code either. I paid for a mimimum membership as flashbuttons.com and when I made the buttons, their system supplied the code to paste into my page. I just plugged it into a small table.
I renamed they swf file in the two places they identified. You could visit my website, like my home page, or the advice page, and view the page source to find the code they supplied. Other than the swf file, all else that did the job is the small piece of code about the size of a medium paragraph.
My son told me to learn flash, but for the buttons, I'd much prefer to find what's done, especially with the ability to quickly test different colors.
If anyone uses flashbuttons.com, careful not to hit the back button to a previous page; you'll lose your work.
That site was slower than snails for two days, but they got the bugs worked out and it's fairly quick.
Aside from the free site I found to make my top menu, I like flashbuttons.com better than any button making site I've ever visited. Never did feel like buying button software since I'm not a pro web designer.

in your flash animation, simply create an a button the size of the whole clip and on the top layer, in everyframe, make it invisble and give it an onclick action to open URL "whatever"
if you need a more precise description let me know
[also not tried it but my brain tells me you should be able to use a javascript to get element by id, then add an onlcick action to it..
hope this helps
