DHTML and Flash? is it possible? how?

okay, i made a mock up for a site, http://redlinenewmedia.com/clients/e.../template.html

as you can see, the left nav is all in flash, its 1 movie/swf.

is there a way to incorporate DHTML into that flash so that when someone mouses over a button in the swf, it triggers a pop-out, DHTML menu?

I need it to be in DHTML and not flash because obviously of the text body in the center, i dont think it can be done, but I am open to suggestions on how to do it.




Also, tell me if this would work. I could define a div tag that its contents would be spacer.gif and its height and width of the div set to the size of the flash button. Basically put a blank layer over where the button on the swf is to trigger the DHTML menu?



Thanks everyone, any and all help/advice is appreciated.

Hi,
you can toggle the visiblity of a div/layer using a flash button. to do this use dreamweaver's good old show hide layers function and trigger that using

on (release){
getURL("javascript:mm_showHideLayer('menulayer',' ' , visible)");
}

hope this solves your problem

bye
