How to paste HTML code into Flash MX 2004

[danklumpp]

Does anyone know how to insert an HTML code into Flash MX 2004? I have a "Buy Now" button from PayPal, but when I insert the button, it just pastes the code. How would you paste the actual button onto the document?

Thanks

wow...well ummm for starters...you cant just paste html into flash

you can use actionscript to simluate a getURL action when u click a button whcih will open up a page to paypal...but you need to find out the address that the "Buy Now" button needs to go to...

The HTML code from PayPal is the link to PayPal, right? When I paste it into Dreamweaver it works correctly.

DreamweaverMX != FlashMX

But if I try copying the HTML code from Dreamweaver to Flash, it doesn't work right, it just pastes the code.

Don't worry about, I'll just create an actionscript.
