This shows how to target frames from Flash buttons. It is a very simple thing, but I have been asked countless times how to do it, especially from a Flash menu in a left frame, and targeting the right frame with the HTML pages. So here's the simple task.
Well first off of course you need a button of some sort. Double-click it to bring up the Actions. Add a Get URL Action.
In the URL box, add the page you want to link. (ex: yourpage.html).
In the Window box underneath, is a drop down menu containing the _self, _blank, _parent and _top commands. But you can also type in your own target. So whatever you have named your frame that you want to target, add it here. (for example main or whatever you have named it).
So now you should have a set of Actions that look like this:
On (Release)
Get URL ("yourpage.html", window="framename")
End On
Thats it! Very simple huh? :)
