Dave,

Post a snippet of what you are trying to do and I'll try to help.

 
how do i post a snippet of what i am trying to do?
in dreramweaver i cant get the flash button to open up another frame(i think the problem maybe with my flash it only open in the same frame
 
Cut what you have so far from the HTML Source window and paste it in a message board message. =)

Shouldn't putting the flash god within an A HREF do it?

Hello Dangerous!

Did you create buttons in Flash or just using DW's feature Insert Flash Button?
If used Flash - you have to change your flash file there and change parameters (Window - frame name).
If you did it using DW - I personally couldn't find how to change it there... :-( Use Flash.

Good Luck!
