Simple enough. Are you still using Flash 5?

I will need to know a few things, but I have an idea what you need.

Check this out:

mouseOver Button Actions

If that is what you are looking for you can download the fla HERE

Obviously I spent about 2 minutes with this, but you should get the idea.

Nop,I'm using flash 8 now. And I know its simple, but when u don't know have an idea how to make it... then its bad.
And I dl the .fla and as I saw I think thats what I needed.
THX verry much Mr.BLiZZaRD :P

I solved the problem somehow, and now have problems that image to be shown outside the borders of that swf file, and need to be shown in other swf file wich is next to that one(where the button is) where I made something like preview bar and its good the image from the button to be showen in there. So simply, the button is in one swf file and the image is in other swf file.
If you have any idea, help out... :P

Other thing I need also, which is simple.
Hmmm... It should be like 5 buttons and when I click first one,for example, I need something like 5more sub buttons...

Your first problem is just that, a problem. Controling a second file with the first is something they say can't be done. However, I am working on doing just that, and am almost finished. Once I am done I will let you know how I did it.

The second one is easy. Instead of having the sub btns show up on mouse over, put them in a nother frame, on another layer.

On your time line you will need a code like this:

Code:

on(release){
   gotoAndStop(2);
}

Then on frame 2 make your sub buttons.

I added this effect to the swf and fla in the links above, refresh your browser and check them out again.

I make it working, the 2 files problem.
...I have one primary swf only with one code, load movie 1....
so if I directrly load movie1, the image is showen in the needed place.And if I load the movie via that primary movie, then it fail to show the pic....
and here is the code I'm using... loadMovieNum("home.swf", 2);
the number 2 meen that when I load the other movie it contains 1primary and other movies wich are loading by clicking.So that 2 meens the primary movie is basic and nothing can be writen in that place...
So I told u, if I cust load that home.swf not via that primary swf, the image is showin in the right place.

PS. the links above are not workin :P

okay, I thought you were talking about actually contolling a separate swf with a different swf. All you are doing is using one file to load the second. My understanding was that you wanted to have navigation buttons in one movie and control a second movie.

The links are fine, but the site is off line right now, I am upgrading to RAID 5 servers, should only be another hour or so.

That is not ok for my movie, I can't make goto any frame on my time line,
coz the move once is played its going to the end,and if I add some more frames it will be played even if I don't click...so still don't have an idea but need some other way.
