In order to make my question more clear --I will use a website
as an example of what I am trying to do.
I know how to switch to different frames on a timeline (movie) as a user clicks a button.
Example, User clicks on the contact button, and the movie
then goes to to contact information section of the movie, etc, etc.—no animation (just plan on (release) { goandstop("");…easy
My Goal:
What I want to do is exactly what this Aurora Tires Website. has
As Viewers click to go to a new page, animation occurs on the previous page before the user is taken to the new page.
Example, as the user is on ‘passenger truck tires’, and then clicks the link for 'light truck tires, ‘passenger truck tires’ does an animation (scrolls up) before
going to ‘passenger truck tires’ page.
I think this is a cool effect and would love top have it on a demo site that I am making.
I would really appreciate help
Thanks

I really wanted to keep this simple if I could, and not pull from totally different movies (.swf’s)
I have never used two swf files for anything and would rather not(is this totally necessary)?
I am pretty new with flash

its helpful. Its difficult to understand at first but doing so will greatly reduce your file size and overall load time.

Does anyone know a good tutorial that demonstrates how to do this?—so I can understand the sequence of things.
Example, I f I create two swf movies, how will I position the one that I am calling to animate off the screen. before the new page is animated on
(it needs to be the exact copy of the main swf.
Man I am really confused?
