javascript and flash?

So, im working on this html website which has a flash movie embedded inside it.
when i click on the links, this javascritp code tells the movie to go to a
specific frame, which then displays the content of the link. for example, when
i click on bio, the bio frame of my flash movie displays the bio. each link has
a specific animation to it. so when i created scrolling images for the "graphic
design" link, however, it doesnt work. its a movie clip within the "graphic
design" frame. my movie clip works fine when I publish it with Flash 8, like
the scrollbar works and everything, but once i post it online, the initial
animation works but the scrollbar business doesn't work.

im using this javascript code to get the frame:

function playgraphic() {
thisMovie('portfolio').GotoFrame(22);
}

whithin that frame, i have the scrolling images. they show up but the
scrolling doesnt work. hope that was clear enough and hope someone can help!
thanx!!

about what image to take. All it works inside flash, but when I try to send
number of picture from JavaScript, it don't work:(
Connection from JS to flash works for textInput fields, but I dont' know why
it don't work for pictures:(
