Help with my flash Nav Bar? [easy stuff]

Question

hey guys, looking for a little bit of help with some simple
flash here, I have a flash banner for a website, there are 5
seperate buttons, the instance names are:
home_btn
about_btn
equip_btn
work_btn
contacts_btn
what code am i looking for to open each new page in the SAME
browser window that the index page first opens in?
i have this code for it right now but it's not working
because of the obvious conflicts:
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("
http://www.fhwm.ca/index.shtml");
home_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,goURL);
function goURL(event:MouseEvent){
navigateToURL(request);
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("
http://www.fhwm.ca/about.shml");
about_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,goURL) ;
function goURL(event:MouseEvent){
navigateToURL(request);
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("
http://www.fhwm.ca/equipment.shml");
equip_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,goURL) ;
function goURL(event:MouseEvent){
navigateToURL(request);
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("
http://www.fhwm.ca/work.shml");
work_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,goURL);
function goURL(event:MouseEvent){
navigateToURL(request);
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("
http://www.fhwm.ca/contacts.shml");
contacts_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,goU RL);
function goURL(event:MouseEvent){
navigateToURL(request);
any help would be much appreciated

Answer 1

You should eliminate what you know to be obvious conflicts
and then repost your code. Someone might be wasting their time
telling you something you already know.
For instance, you cannot declare the same function or
variable more than once, as you repeatedly do. Either each button
needs its own uniquely named/dedicated handler function and URL
(request) variable OR you need a handler function that detects
which button is the target of the event and assigns the URL to the
request variable via a switch or other conditional code which is
then used to process the page loading.
