I have a page that is extremely long, and you have to scroll through to the bottom. I have a flash menu on the top with simple butons. I would like to have the flash buttons link to titles further down the page.

In HTML I would use  
\<a href="#link title"\>LINK NAME\</a\>  
on the button

and

\<a name=“link title”\>  
where I wanted the link to lead.

I cannot figure how to do this in flash, and am not sure if it is possible.

Any suggestions?

ive never tried but you’d have to use targets, with a #targetname at the end of your link, you might want to try that…
