Fresh Ideas for navagation to share

In this image above, I was thinking of a cool way to navigate around my site. But, I’m not sure how to make it work? What I want to do is Have the center bar launch windows connected by the tabs. So that if you click on the tab the window would extend, and the gray bar would slide down enough to make room for the images to apprear.

If I click on the bottom tabs, a lower tab-window would appear and the bar would slide closer to the top so that the blog could be read. I think I have the windows covered buy making them empty movie clips and loading the content into the windows. I’m just not sure how to tell the gray nav to move enough to the top or the bottom of the swf? What do you folks think? Any help would be great. Also, as I think about it…the bottom or top of the tab would have to know how close it was the borders of the swf for the text to scroll if needed?:bounce:
