Hi all,

I’ve put together a photographers portolio site. The site has one main swf and five externally loaded swfs. One for each gallery.

**Example:** main.swf, gallery1.swf, gallery2.swf, gallery3.swf, gallery4.swf, gallery5.swf

Is there a way I can link to to a specific frame in gallery1.swf from a button in main.swf?

Thanks in advance,

J.P.
