I’m wanting to replicate [http://www.kenzo.com/kenzo.htm](http://www.kenzo.com/kenzo.htm) using either Flash MX 2004 or Flash 8?

I’m considering loading/unloading section into levels ( base 0, menu level 4, background level 1, textboxes level2, header level3) or  
Problems:

- how to ‘unload / load’ movies using Flash 8? ( for section background images, text boxes, and menu on top level )

- how to load new JPG backgrounds from either external XML or external JPGs?

- how to load JPGs _with_ fade transition on menu button mouseover?
