Dear All,

I have embedded a simple Flash menu into my FrontPage 2002 website.

The HTML page is divided into two frames; the top one for the Flash menu and the lower one for the content that changes according to which button on the menu is clicked.

My problem is how do I tell the Flash menu to open the requested page in the lower, i.e. content, frame? at the moment it only opens the page in the top, i.e. the menu, frame

I understand that this is controlled from Flash but what lines of script etc. do I need to include with each individual button?

Many thanks in advance

```auto
on (release) {
getURL("yourfile.html","framename");
}

```

Something along those lines.

After you click your button, yourfile.html will load into the frame that is given the name “framename” (no quotes)
