Hello, I'm trying to add a button with an hyperlink to a page on my website to the last frame (the animation is programmed to stop after the last frame) of an HTML5 Canvas animation; when I try the animation in preview the link just works fine, but when I publish it it does not work. What am I missing? Here's the code I added to the action timeline at the last frame:

this.button_1.addEventListener("click", fl_ClickToGoToWebPage);

function fl_ClickToGoToWebPage() {
window.open("https://www.soildao.org/onepager.pdf", "_blank");
}
this.stop();

    open your browser's developer console and check for errors.

    Any suggestion?

    Image buttons violate browser security policies when run directly from the local file system, full stop.

     

    Test from within Animate.
