Or a similar efffect?

i was visiting a site and it seemed like they had integrated an HTML page right into the flash movie.

Basically, I’m trying setup a site for someone with a flash homepage and then a CMS-managed blog (using Textpattern). I’d like to have the “new blog posts” show up in the flash movie from the CMS.

Is there a load vars in flash 8 that allows full HTML compatibility rather than basic HTML from a .txt file? So I could load a full page from the blog like an iframe right into flash?

nopers, we’re all waiting for that in Flash 9(or whatever). As for right now, i usually just launch a new html page with a flash navbar in a borderless frame that is seamless with the motherflash…🙂

You want to use iframes _in_ flash? Or do you just mean splitting up sections of an HTML page into iframes and communicating between each using flash? For example, you can target an iframe in flash like [AS]getURL(“blog.html”, “iFrameName”);[/AS]
