I have been doing research on this problem, but I can't seem to come right.
I would just like to know what actionscript needs to be added to my button in Flash, and how it is added, in order for it to link to my HTML page.

This is what I always use.
(click on the button instance)
(click on the button instance)
on (release){ getURL("http://www.yoursite.com"); }

I am using Actionscript 1.0 & 2.0, but I can use 3.0 if I want to (Adobe Flash CS3).
I have tried using the code suggested above, but I keep getting errors.
And when i select the button instance, it tells me that my selection cannot have actions applied to it.
(Yes, it is definetely the instance of my button that I am selecting )
What am I doing wrong? I've never had so much trouble with actionscript before.

Try this....
Make an actions layer
select it and in the actions panel for that frame add code
_root.buttonName.on(release){ getURL("www.yourlink.com"); }
where "buttonName" is the instance name you gave your button.
If that doesn't work, then I'd check to make sure you made the object a button object.

_root.buttonName.on(release){
getURL("www.yourlink.com");
}
the correct way is
_root.buttonName.onRelease = function(){ getURL("www.yourlink.com"); }
