ah figured it out, i needed to add an event listner to the button.

                public function clickThis(event:MouseEvent):void
                {
                        navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://www.twitter.com";), 
"_blank");
                }

                        theLink.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, 
clickThis);
                        addChild(theLink);

would have thought flex automatically gives you this option but you
have to define it when you link a button programmatically.
cheers,
aj
