To make your banner link to their site follow the instructions here http://www.lukamaras.com/tutorials/banners/flash-ad-banners-basics.html
on making an invisible button but, when you get to the part that says "Creating a hyperlink with ActionScript" go to the link mr. fisher posted in the post before this one and view the third post in the thread on that page and follow those instructions. 1  out of 1 found this valuable. Do you?

And be sure to rename your button in the properties pallet (mybutton for ex.)
+
When you copy or type the action script, change the capitol "B" in my Button to a lower case "b"

mybutton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, myButtonFunction);
function myButtonFunction(event: MouseEvent) {
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://flashgameu.com");
navigateToURL(request);
}
