I recently created a site using the “Transitions between External SWFs” tutorial for Flash MX 2004. I use this to load the sections of my site into the main movie file. Each section is an External SWF file. When a viewer clicks on a navigation button, the specific external swf move will load and play. Currently, a viewer would need to click on another navigation option to close the current external swf file. I would like to add a close button to each of the external swfs so that a view has the option to close the window without clicking on a naviagtion link. Anyone have any suggestions? I am fairly new to actionscript and not quite sure how to accomplish this.

Thanks in advance for you help!
