Embed A Browser IN Flash

[overyde]

Hey Guys,
Is there a component or someway I can embed a browser into flash? I know that it can be done with MDM Zinc but I need it to go through a browser rather than being a desktop application. Sounds confusing I know but it is a way for me to bring 2 projects together seamlessly.

Reality is built on a foundation of dreams.

No. You can display basic HTML text in the TextField, that's about it.

You can tell the flash to create (via javascript commands sent with ExternalInterface) an IFRAME out in the container HTML of your flash page, and overlay that IFRAME on top of your flash at the right coordinate location. This will make it look to the user that they've got what you are asking for.

The one key here is that the main flash SWF on the page needs to be embedded on the page with wmode=opaque or wmode=transparent, so that DHTML items can overlay it.
