Author Flash buttons linking corresponding flash pages.

I'm using Flash Pro 8, and Dreamweaver 8. I'm new to both, so I figure a
good way to learn is by a template and dissecting it to learn it...

I've downloaded a template, and have nearly completed editing each template
page, but I can't find any tutorial on how to make the buttons load the
corresponding flash page.

Example, I press the "contact" button on the main flash page, and it loads the
"contacts" flash page.

So pretty much, I have the all templates edited (pictures, background,
colors, and text changed). I ALSO need to know what to do from there to get
all the swf's working together. I know you have to convert them from fla to
swf to import them into Dreamweaver, but that's really about it.....

I didn't know whether to put this into the Dreamweaver forum, or the Flash
forum, so I picked this one cause it said "flash site design"...hopefully it's
the right one! Hopefully somebody can point me in the right direction!!!

Thanks in advance!

Nate, the first thing to do would be some basic reading on publishing Flash
documents (i.e. "converting from FLA to SWF"). Start with the Live Docs here:

This will help you in producing the SWF file that you can then place in your
HTML template using Dreamweaver.

Good luck!
