Scenario:  
\*all flash are completely independent files loaded in the page

Index – flash navigation  
Index2 – flash navigation + flash component

I want to have the flash navigation determine what page it is on, and then either go to Index2 and then play a particular frame in the flash component, or if already on Index2 just play the particular frame in the flash component.

I have the localconnection set for the navigation and the flash component on the Index2 and it works. I want to know if it is possible to transfer a gotoAndPlay action from the Index to the Index2 flash component. I know it is possible if both pages are open at the same time, but not sure about the way I want to do it.

If anyone has anything that might help, I would really appreciate it!!
