on my index file for a site, I have a flash presentation. My client wants this page to automatically link to another page when the presentation is finished. Is there an easy way to do this?
 
Yes there is an easy way to do this. You need to add it to your flash presentation. Under the behaviours panel add a Go To Web Page

So..you are saying that I need to do this in the "Flash" program rather than the "Dreamweaver Program?" I don't see a "behavioral panel" in flash. I do see it in dreamweaver and when I try to add a behavior, it won't let me select "go to web page" or "go to url" because it is greyed out.
 
In Flash select Window>Development panels>behaviors

Or if you know how long the presentation is use a javascript timer to redirect after a set time. Example:
Code:
<script>
function timer(){
setTimeout("window.location='nextpage.htm'", 2000)
}
</script>
<body onLoad="timer()">
Just change the location to the page you wish to redirect to and 2000 to the ammount of time the presentation takes to play through.
