topic moved.. posted on the wrong forum..

and as answer to your question: Google for "Local connection"
That's the way to communicate between 2 or more swf's

or maybe use FlashVars

If u using SwishMax, you can load the other movies in a sprite so your naviguation bar stay on top.

If u using Flash MX, you can do the same using different layers.
