Calling parts of a flash file into seperate html files 1

[s0crates9]

I would like to have an all flash website, but I want to be able to have each section of the flash to be on it's own page.

For example, I would like to have a site with the categories:

Contact us
About Us
Services
News

So essentially, when the user navigates through the flash file from category to category, they will be on seperate html files like:

contact.html
about.html
services.html
news.html

I am new to flash, so I have an idea that it is done through actionscript but have no idea - perhaps there is an example someone can make for me to study or guide me to some material on how to do this.

Thanks so much!

You just need a simple script like this in the main timeline:

contactUsButton.onRelease = function():Void  {
	getURL("contact.html");
};

"contactUsButton" is the name given to the Button instance on Stage.

Sounds easy enough, but will that load the contact us flash content on the contact.html page? without having to re-nvigate to that part of the flash?

If you have contact us flash content on the contact.html page yes it will do.

Sorry I just saw the title of your post and I think what you want is to have 1 Flash file and display different sections of it depending on the hosting HTML.

One way is to use FlashVars: <

You can send the variable such as "section=contactUs" from HTML to the SWF, then you can navigate the playhead to the desired frame depending on the value of the variable "section".
