Goto Link



The Goto Link action jumps to a user-specified URL. When using this action to jump to another site, it is good practice to give viewers a hint that they are going to move to another location on the Web.

To set up a Goto Link action in the TimeLine Editor or for an image, a rollover button or form element:

1 Ctrl-click (Windows) or Command-click (Mac OS) the Actions Track of the TimeLine Editor to insert an action marker, or select a mouse or key event and click the + button in the Actions palette. (Using this action with text may confuse viewers. Use a normal text hyperlink instead.)

2 Choose Actions > Link > Goto Link.

3 Click the small icon next to the Link option to specify how to supply the Web address:

The red "C" icon () (default) lets you specify a fixed Web address. The green question mark icon () lets you choose an action. The blue ball icon () lets you select a variable that holds the Web address.

4 If the current page is located in a frame set, use the Target text box to specify a target frame where the referenced page should appear.

5 Preview the action in a 4.0 browser.
