IFRAME AND FLASH BUTTONS QUESTION?

[haitianbrotha]

To all the pro dreamweaver and flash users.I have a question ,that couldn't be
answered for awhile.I'm making this site using dreamwer and using teh flash
buttons dreamweaver provides you with.Now i want to make a link from the
navigation buttons to the iframe yet keepin the intire page static and only
the iframe will upload teh information or document.I know how to target and and
make the links from a navigation to teh iframe but thats by normal text
meaning the navigations arent button it's just normal text. Withbteh buttons
it's abit different there's a way to do it but i'm not sure if any body could
help out that would be great thank you very much

I assume you know all this...but just to be certain; you have multiple html
(htm, whatever) files saved for each frame? After that, I would say you need
to open the properties inspector window when one of your buttons is selected -
and click on "edit" (in the upper right-hand corner of the window). This will
give you all the options that would normally be directly in the properties
inspector window with DHTML that you did yourself.

Interestingly - I never knew all those flash buttons came with dreamweaver :P
(I like the last tab that looks like OSX) :D

First you'll need to name your iFrame..

<iframe name="myiframe" etc...>

Then to make the Flash button to target this iframe you'll need to create a
temporary Frameset. In this Frameset name one of the Frames the same as your
iFrame. You'll probabaly have to save the Frameset first too. Then when you
launch the Flash Button interface from one of the pages in this Frameset it
will add that Frame name to the Target list and you can select it.

Create your Flash buttons using the target of the Frame with the same name
as the iFrame and save them. Then just insert them into the page containing
the iFrame and the target will be there for them.
