I am trying to create a button link in Flash CS4 and I am having a hard time. What is the correct action script?

I have tried using this:

CODE

myButton_btn.onRelease=function(){
getURL("http://www.tutorial5.com/", "_blank");
}

but the Compiler Error box keeps coming up everytime I play the timeline.

That looks like Actionscript 2.0. I'm guessing you're making this file in Actionscript 3.0, so it would actually look a bit different.

I haven't really used Flash in a while, but I think the code would be a little something like this:

CODE

stop();
myButton_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDownHandler);
function mouseDownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndStop(2);
}
