Is there anyway to link two flash animations together so that it doesn't jump to another page when a link his hit. I have the action set as On release getURL of the other flash swf file, but it loads it as a entirely new page and thus ruins my original page layout. Can anyone shine some light on this for me?
A couple solutions --
point getURL to an HTML page that's just like the first one except loading the second flash (since getURL points the browser to an URL, not the Flash area to a new URL), or
load the SWF in an iframe so only that changes, or
load the SWF in a div and have the first flash call a javascript routine that re-renders the div with the second flash dynamically (not sure if this will work since it's an embedded plugin but i don't see why not).
