Controlling which .swf plays in which frame...

Hi - I am working on a project where I want a navigation .swf in one frame of a page which will hopefully control a number of .swfs in other frames - so say I have navi.swf in my frame called "Navgation" and I had another frame called "Main" - could I use actionscript to replace (I know that's the wrong word...) the .swf in the frame "Main"

Thanks...

loadMovie()

Yes, you can! You want to use the loadMovie() action. Here's the description from the Macromedia.com website.

Hope that helps,
