Create the Movie Clip
Our smart clip will be a simple URL button. It will show a caption in the text box, and the button will go to a URL. Both of these two properties will be set up in the smartclip.
Step 1 : Building the Button
First, create a simple button and a 'dynamic text' box with the variable name of caption. Make sure you turn off 'Selectable' too!

on (release) {
getURL (url, "_blank");
}
Step 2 : Convert to Movie Clip
Highlight the button and the text box and hit F8 to turn the objects into a symbol... name it what ever you like, but it has to be a movie clip... (which Flash 5 defaults to... nice!)
