flash - Event action on clicking a hyperlink from a textbox -

restating question simpler....

i want able link action script event clicking text within text box.the thing can see create basic hyper link, not apply action:

i have been messing around on hour can't see way apply actionscript , tutorials on internet seem target actionscript 3 or not want.

the reason there background music site , when youtube launched, needs muted. know code mute , have done on custom objects before, can't see way apply script textbox hyperlink.

whilst ideally way, happy consider solution resulting in opening page , muting site.

to honest, tried doing quick switch as3, there many problems need addressing, rather spend time converting site html/jquery or silverlight.... hope there small have overlooked can done without many changes needed.

you can textevent.link event listen user clicks on link in textfield:

import flash.text.textfield; import flash.events.textevent;  var textfield:textfield = new textfield(); textfield.htmltext = "<a href='event:arg1,arg2'><b>hyperlink</b></a>"; addchild(textfield);  textfield.addeventlistener(textevent.link, ontextfieldlink);  function ontextfieldlink(e:textevent):void {     var args:array = e.text.split(",");     trace(args); // output: arg1, arg2  }// end function 

any parts come after "event:" stored in event object's text property. can simulate parsing arguments event object using string.split() method split text string delimiter comma. can store each indvidual element in array.

[update]

for particular scenario(as far understand it), following may better suited you:

import flash.text.textfield; import flash.events.textevent; import flash.net.navigatetourl; import flash.net.urlrequest;  var textfield:textfield = new textfield(); textfield.htmltext = "<a href='event:watch?v=jzwedwbj_ic'><b>hyperlink</b></a>"; addchild(textfield);  textfield.addeventlistener(textevent.link, ontextfieldlink);  function ontextfieldlink(e:textevent):void {     var url:string = "http://www.youtube.com/" + e.text;     var urlrequest:urlrequest = new urlrequest(url);     navigatetourl(urlrequest, "_blank");  }// end function
