HI
I've made a menu in flash that i want to use in my website.
I have te site splitted horizontally in two frames, the menu should be in the top, and when you click it different things should appear in the bottom frame. I got two problems:

1:
Is it possible to make local links in flash, I've only made links to URLs ("...") i want to link to like "C:/my documents/mysite/mainpage.htm" The only way I can do it now is to have an image instead of a flashdoc in dreamweaver and image map it...

2:
If I link to URLs in flash they'll open in the same frame, not in my bottom frame... So I really need to make a menu that you can click on in the top frame, and the result should appear in the bottom frame...

Anyone?

There is no problem with that. When you use "" in flash function getURL() it's an absolute URL, but you can use relative - "/page.html" . It's relative to current flash menu address. If you need to open it in another frame use target or window parameter in this function, it can be "_self", "_parent","_blank", "_top" or the name of your content frame. Don't confuse the name of frame file (mainFrame.html) and its parameter "name" (&lt;frame src="mainFrame.html" name="bottomFrame"&gt<img src=../images/dmxzone/forum/icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>. I have made flash menus for dreamweaver and used such links on f-source.com
