I have 250 pages that I want to use the same Flash graphic, but I'd like to use them to link to 250 other different pages.

So basically I don't want to make 250 simalar flash movies with the link in them. I'd like to link them once they're already on the html page.

Can Frontpage or Dreamweaver use the flash movie as a "picture" and link it to something as you would an image (<a href=, alt=...)?

Thanks,
Safari Guy

flash is superimposed ontop of the webpage with the flash flugin. it's not really part of the html document so you can't do that. sorry...

you can pass the link into the flash movie with javascript.

here's some info on passing variables to your flash graphic:

it's tricky and cumbersome, but can be done.
