Hi all, Im wondering how i can link to a specific keyframe in a parent SWF from an external SWF

My nav has a root SWF which loads external SWF’s over the top. The external swf has a link back to a specific keyframe within the parent SWF which would have to close the external SWF as its over the top of the root SWF graphic. (confusing I know)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If youre not sure what i mean leave a post and ill update…
