Nav Bar + Html Frames? - HTML Forums

Hi,

I've got a Web project in the works, with the goal of using Flash with something like frames to change a large cut out, and I was wondering how I can make an upsidedown
L/C shaped Flash nav bar work with html frames.

basic shape outline:

I'm wondering if I can just have two frames (big box, little box) or if I have to
chop up my flash file into three pieces and make four frames.

If I do chop up my flash file into 3 swf files, how do I get all three
to work with each other?

I actually discovered the method is radically different than expected, and solved some problems. I'll still have to get rid of the scroll bars, but figured out if I chop up the navigation bar into 7 flash files, then the top menu buttons will change the navigation bar frame, while the navigation bar buttons will change the display menu.
