Can I make a Flash movie go to a frame from a URL

[DarthMarklar]

Here's the situation, I have a flash movie that has 5 (or so) scenes. The Flash
piece is on the same page as the hyperlinks and I want to be able to control
the Flash file (i.e. jump to a new scene) based on these HTML hyperlinks. I am
trying to avoid adding the hyperlinks (as buttons) to my Flash piece because
their proximity isn't close enough without making the Flash file too large.

I figured that using HTML hyperlinks will involve some sort of javascript, so
I was also thinking about creating a separate Flash file to house the 5 or 6
hyperlinks (meaning there'd be one Flash file with the 5 scenes and another
Flash file with the navigation), but I still don't know how to make one Flash
file make another Flash file jump to a specific scene (even if they are on the
same page).

I found scripts on how to pass variables back and forth, but nothing about
navigation. Is there an easy way to do this?

Suggestions?
