AS3 stop(); not working w/ Multi URLRequest

Question

When I place one link in AS3 with a stop everything works great!
     stop();
     import flash.events.MouseEvent;
     //---link1
     var getLink1:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://www.google.com");
     link1btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);
     function onClick(event:MouseEvent):void{
         navigateToURL(getLink1, "_self");
but when I add more links my stop(); fails to work - like the example below.
          stop();
          import flash.events.MouseEvent;         
          //---link1
          var getLink1:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://www.google.com");
          link1btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);
          function onClick(event:MouseEvent):void{
              navigateToURL(getLink1, "_self");
          //---link2
          var getLink2:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://www.yahoo.com");
          link2btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);
          function onClick(event:MouseEvent):void{
         navigateToURL(getLink2, "_self");
link1btn and link2btn are instance names.
Any ideas?

  stop();
  import flash.events.MouseEvent;        
var getLink1:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://www.google.com");
var getLink2:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://www.yahoo.com");
   link1btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);
link2btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);
function onClick(event:MouseEvent):void{
if (event.target.name=="link1btn")
         navigateToURL(getLink1, "_self");
else (event.target.name=="link2btn")
         navigateToURL(getLink2, "_self");
IF NOT WORKS, change event.target.name to event.currentTarget.name
