What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. embed code on a myspace page
2. let slideshow begin
3. click on image

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
it's expected that the image will link to the flickr page for it. instead, the mouse turns into a hand 
when you hover over an image, but the link doesn't work.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
badgr 2.0 on mac os x 

Please provide any additional information below.

I just added a text link underneath it. The problem started a few weeks ago when
MySpace requested everyone upgrade to Macromedia 9 (?) . It's not limited to badgr,
inks from flash files don't seem to work at all in Firefox or I.E. The links to You
Tube videos, for instance, don't activate either.

I think this is a case of typical bad MySpace coding.

Yep, it seems that MySpace is doing some "interesting" things with Flash objects on
their pages.

I don't think there's anything I can do about this, but I'll leave the issue open.

Hi all, I have added a parameter to the <embed> tag and I solved the problem. Just use:

<embed allowScriptAccess="always" ...>

Regards
