Thats done with HTML and Iframes.

Oh sorry… I misread what you were asking.

I thought you were saying how did he get the drop menu to open up a flash movie in the bottom.

<— Oye… muy tired.

Well that movie is done with tweens (or frame by frame).

And it seems as though the buttons assign variables, and once a certain frame is reached it plays the appropriate animation.

inline Frames are my new favorite toy… I cannot belive I just found out about them like 3 months ago!

Wow you are sooo behind…lol. Just kidding. I like Iframes as well. They are one of my favorites too :beam:

It is ashame so many people use them wrong (like frames too) and give them a bad name though.

im too behind what are inside frames and iframes? haha

Inline Frames are Iframes… Iframes = short for Inline Frames.

They are… inline frames…lol.

When you create an Iframe, you create a mini viewable box, with which you a .html file inside of it. That box becomes like its own frame. You can scroll it to view the whole HTML file and everything. It is great for news/updates areas.

so theyre html code?

Yes.

<IFRAME SRC="file.htm" WIDTH=150 HEIGHT=150>Your browser does not support inline frames or is currently configured not to display inline frames.</IFRAME>

Here you go man - best tutorial out there (if you know a bit about html to start, but you dont have to know much)

http://www.yourhtmlsource.com/frames/inlineframes.html

thanx sureshot and h88 i read the tutorial seems pretty easy.

nuff respect ma yout

Or you could just do it in frontpage 2002 if you do not know html well

is there a way to make a webpage with a transparent backround so u can use it in an iframe?

Think of it this way…

Iframes chop out a hole in your web page to show the content.

It doesn’t put it on top, so you can’t make it transparent (that I know of, never tried to figure out a way).
