I’m working on the drop down menu with xml (from this site - [http://www.secretplus.com/flashwebmenu/index.html](http://www.secretplus.com/flashwebmenu/index.html)), and I need to link to specific frames in my flash file, but it seems to be in html, is this possible to do??

Or if not, I am building this drop down menu by hand and my actionscript looks like this:

//when you initialize your buttons set them to invisible like this  
stars.\_visible = false;  
starsa.\_visible = false;  
stars1.\_visible = false;  
starsa1.\_visible = false;  
starsb.\_visible = false;  
button2.\_visible = false;  
button3.\_visible = false;  
button4.\_visible = false;  
//then when you roll over the first button make all the buttons visible  
rs.onRollOver = function() {  
stars.\_visible = true;  
button2.\_visible = true;  
button3.\_visible = true;  
button4.\_visible = true;  
};  
stars.onRollOver = function() {  
stars.\_visible = true;  
starsa.\_visible = true;  
starsb.\_visible = false;  
button2.\_visible = true;  
button3.\_visible = true;  
button4.\_visible = true;  
};  
starsa.onRollOver = function() {  
stars.\_visible = true;  
starsa.\_visible = true;  
stars1.\_visible = true;  
starsb.\_visible = true;  
button2.\_visible = true;  
button3.\_visible = true;  
button4.\_visible = true;  
};  
starsa1.onRollOver = function() {  
starsb.\_visible = false;  
};  
stars1.onRollOver = function() {  
starsa.\_visible = false;  
starsa1.\_visible = false;  
starsb.\_visible = false;  
};  
starsb.onRollOver = function() {  
stars.\_visible = true;  
starsa.\_visible = true;  
starsa1.\_visible = true;  
starsb.\_visible = true;  
button2.\_visible = true;  
button3.\_visible = true;  
button4.\_visible = true;  
};  
starsb.onRollOut = function() {  
starsb.\_visible = false;  
};  
starsa.onRollOut = function() {  
starsa.\_visible = false;  
};  
button2.onRollOver = function() {  
stars.\_visible = true;  
stars1.\_visible = false;  
button2.\_visible = true;  
button3.\_visible = true;  
button4.\_visible = true;  
};

button3.onRollOver = function() {  
stars.\_visible = true;  
stars1.\_visible = false;  
button2.\_visible = true;  
button3.\_visible = true;  
button4.\_visible = true;  
};

rs.onRollOut = function() {  
stars.\_visible = false;  
starsa.\_visible = false;  
stars1.\_visible = false;  
starsa1.\_visible = false;  
starsb.\_visible = false;  
button2.\_visible = false;  
button3.\_visible = false;  
button4.\_visible = false;  
};

stars.onRollOut = function() {  
stars.\_visible = false;  
starsa.\_visible = false;  
stars1.\_visible = false;  
starsa1.\_visible = false;  
starsb.\_visible = false;  
button2.\_visible = false;  
button3.\_visible = false;  
button4.\_visible = false;  
};

button2.onRollOut = function() {  
stars.\_visible = false;  
starsa.\_visible = false;  
stars1.\_visible = false;  
starsa1.\_visible = false;  
starsb.\_visible = false;  
button2.\_visible = false;  
button3.\_visible = false;  
button4.\_visible = false;  
};

button3.onRollOut = function() {  
stars.\_visible = false;  
starsa.\_visible = false;  
stars1.\_visible = false;  
starsa1.\_visible = false;  
starsb.\_visible = false;  
button2.\_visible = false;  
button3.\_visible = false;  
button4.\_visible = false;  
};

button4.onRollOut = function() {  
stars.\_visible = false;  
starsa.\_visible = false;  
stars1.\_visible = false;  
starsa1.\_visible = false;  
starsb.\_visible = false;  
button2.\_visible = false;  
button3.\_visible = false;  
button4.\_visible = false;  
};

and this is only from 3 buttons, I need help looping if that is all possible.

So I have 2 choices but I would like to know the better, more easier route.
