Here's a quick Example I made up: ------------------------------------------------------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; layout="absolute" borderColor="#FFFFFF" backgroundGradientAlphas="[1.0, 1.0]" backgroundGradientColors="[#FFFFFF, #FFFFFF]" width="304" height="154"> <mx:Script> <![CDATA[ public function urlGo():void { var url:String = new String(); if(urlInput.text == "" || urlInput.text == "http://";) { url = "http://www.adobe.com";; } else { url = urlInput.text; } var myURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url); navigateToURL(myURL,"_blank"); } ]]> </mx:Script> <mx:Label x="84" y="70" text="Click This Link To Go!" textDecoration="underline" color="#1948E1" fontSize="12" buttonMode="true" useHandCursor="true" mouseChildren="false" click="urlGo();"/> <mx:TextInput x="10" y="40" width="284" id="urlInput" text="http://"/> <mx:Label x="10" y="22" text="Enter URL:"/> </mx:Application> ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A couple of things to note that I did here. 1) The link goes to a default URL (http://www.adobe.com) if no url is entered in the box, otherwise, it goes to the url in the box. 2) In order to make a hand cursor come over a label (and text) you need to set all three properties: buttonMode="true" useHandCursor="true" mouseChildren="false" Hope that helps some!
