HI everyone. im making my first site in flash and i have made hte  
navigation and have come to the part where i want to be able to click  
on the link and for that links content to play … in the saem window…  
with everything the same… except the content coming up… sorty of like  
having an iframe in html. so anyway i was wondering if anyone can give  
me some tips on how to approach this and what would be the the most  
clever way. i was gonna just make a separate movie and then try to do  
some actionscripting i guess… so if anyone can give me some tips it  
would be appreciated… tanks.
