Hello All,
just a quick question,
can you target a framed site with a flash swf..? I am using a flash movie as a menu bar in a framed site, so far I can't seem to target the main window... it will either replace the menu..(self, parent) or replace the entire page...
any ideas..?

Anyone can correct me if I am wrong but I think you can use the getURL function for each button in your menu and then in the textbox where it says "window" just type in "_mainframe" or whatever it is called.

That's right, you basically apply a getURL action that targets the name of the frame. So if your frame is called "content" for example then you would apply this action to your button:on (release) {
getURL("http://www.yoursite.com", "content");
}
