You could use a button and define the skins to be the same graphic (so it doesnt change like a button normally would when its state changes):
Button { upSkin:Embed("../assets/mygraphic.jpg"); downSkin:Embed("../assets/mygraphic.jpg"); overSkin:Embed("../assets/mygraphic.jpg"); } THen you just specify the click handler as you would with any button: <mx:Button id="b1" click="doSomething()"/> Just dont specify a label for the button. That will muck up the sizing of the button and the text will bleed through your image. hth, matt horn flex docs > -----Original Message----- > From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Henry > Sent: Thursday, July 06, 2006 8:37 AM > To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com > Subject: [flexcoders] Using and image as a link > > I have been trying to get and image to go to a URL on a > click.
