Hi...I have a flash movie embedded in a html page that contains several
layers of text. Can a script at the end of the flash movie make a invisible
layer visible? If so whould would the script be? \

thanks

You have to use Javascript to make a div visible and you can call
Javascript from Flash. Just create the Javascript function and put it
on the page that houses your Flash movie. Then in Flash call that
function like this...

getURL("java script:showDivFunc();");

Hi,

Yes and no.

Flash it's self can't control layers, but, it can parse out JavaScript
functions, and JavaScript can control layers.

If you are hoping to have a layer appear over the top of your flash, think
again. If my memory serves me right flash will cover up any layers you try to
place over it.

Hope this helps.
