Navigation Buttons with Swap Image
by Vincent Rosati on Jul 4, 2008 at 11:22:45 pm

I'm trying to do something like this...
http://www.berndtgroup.net/
...probably not as complicated, though.

My existing navigation is just DIVs that change color during hover. I want to add a panel next to the buttons that will wipe through different images that relate to the button that is being hovered.

Question - Can I make Flash buttons that fit into my existing DIVs, that will control a flash movie (in another DIV) that would wipe through different images that relate to whichever button that is being hovered - portfolio, bio, etc.
Or, should I create a single flash movie that holds both the buttons and the wiping image sequence, and fit this single flash component into a larger single DIV?

Obviously, I barely know anything about Flash - let alone the scripting that it will take to make this happen, but that's for another day.

You should make it as a single swf file as it would be easy to make and maintain. Also you should make it using an external xml file which is more flexible in terms of maintenance.
