Is it possible to have a link in Flash link to a different (named anchor) section of an HTML document? I suspect not but I imagine it may be doable with Javascript. Anyone know anything about this?

HTML version of a jump to a named anchor. Question is can you accomplish the same thing from a link in a swf?

TIA
