g’day i was checking out the following link

[http://www.actionscripts.org/tutorials/advanced/active\_search\_list/index.shtml](http://www.actionscripts.org/tutorials/advanced/active_search_list/index.shtml)

and i liked the idea of the active search list…

my question is…

rather than with this example which links to a webpage, and then loads it externally.  
is it possible to make it so, when you click on a search result, that it plays a instance of a movie clip.

for example… what i’m trying to do is make an address book with a map…

so when someone searches for james smith (great name i know)… and then they click on his name… the map re-adjusts and zooms in to where his room is…

hope that makes sense.

thanx in advance.
