Hi,
I have just designed a menubar in Macromedia Flash MX and also doing a website design in Macromedia Dreamweaver MX.

For the web pages, I have decided a split Frames format, Menu fram, top-logo frame and main page frame.

I have managed so far to find myself through all the issues with the design and creation of the menubar, and rest of the web pages.

But, I have a bit of problem to figure out what I need to do to link the menubar's buttons in the Flash MX, to the main page, so when I click on any button, ONLY the main frame changes to another page.
I am sure that it is a very simple trick to it, but I don't seem to be able to find the instructions on the Support pages.
Maybe, because I am not sure what to look for.

So I would appreciate any advise so I can continue with my design.
Have fun.

just add the actionscript to your button naming the target window the same
as the frame name you want to load your page into;

on (release) {
getURL("yourpage.html", "mainFrame");
}
