Thanks to "UnityWebPlayer" the game can be played from your browser. But I would like to put a link to a website when clicking on objects (Images, doors, words ...) Would it be possible to put a url when I click with the mouse?

Use Application.OpenURL. For the clicking part, that depends on what you're doing exactly, but using OnMouseDown is one pretty simple way.

You can find that info on here: file:///Applications/Unity/Documentation/ScriptReference/WWW.html

But you do this:

// Get the latest webcam shot from outside "Friday's" in Times Square var url = "http://images.earthcam.com/ec_metros/ourcams/fridays.jpg"; function Start () { // Start a download of the given URL var www : WWW = new WWW (url);

 // Wait for download to complete
 yield www;

 // assign texture
 renderer.material.mainTexture = www.texture;

This is example taken from Unity, showing you to retrieve info from websites. But you can manipulate into URL

Where the var url is, change that in the "http://" to your specific website

you can do so: create one function:

// function of the button public void exampleFunction(string link){ Application.OpenURL (link); }

or :

// function of the button public void exampleFunction(){ Application.OpenURL ("www.exemplo.com"); }

now pass as parameter in your button or choose not pass parameter
