Targeting with a flash button

Hi - I'm new to the Dreamweaver world -

I created a button in Flash. I then created a Dreamweaver site with frames.
I inserted my flash button in one frame, and my target frame is an other frame.

How do you pass information from the flash button to dreamweaver? I want the
button to tell dreamweaver "when i'm clicked, change the target frame to
"page2.htm".

I'm thinking about just developing my page purely in Flash. Would that be a
better option?

Open your button in Flash. Edit the "gotoURL" action. In the "window"
field type the name of the frame in which your would like the page to
appear. Flash window = HTML target.

Thanks guys! I'm going to stick to integrating Flash with Dreamweaver. I'm
not really concerned with search engines finding the site since its a family
website - but I'll keep your pointer in mind. And my button works great!
