My MySpace page features a customized Flash news system which enables users to read my current news via XML. At the bottom of each article, there is a button that when clicked provides an external link regarding the corresponding article. You're probably wondering how the hell I was able to achieve this on MySpace, but it's rather simple! Once the button is clicked, the link is automatically copied to the Windows Clipboard and then all the user has to do is paste the link in their browser window! Since they would most likely be unfamilar with this type of procedure, it would probably be in your best interest to place a tooltip over the button onRollOver instructing them to click the button and then paste the new link in their browser window.
