    I use Dreamweaver and Flash and I have a question.......

    [ layers refer to DHTML Layers not Flash Layers ]

    In Dreamweaver I can control the visibility of layers by setting behaviors to show/hide layers on mouseover, click, etc. Well, I want to do my navigation in flash but I want to show and hide these layers(HTML).

    The benefit: Since the layers contain text only, they load quickly without the page having to reload AND the client can change the information contained in them easily.

    Can this be done?

    Simples way is: build your site but substitute text links for your flash navigation, using the Dreamweaver functions create the show hide layer behavioure you want,

    then once your done, copy the code that was placed inthe onclick part of your text links (ie: <a href="... onclick="MM..." something like that) and put this in getURL inside your flash navigation

    for example lets say the function is onclick="showMe()" you would place showMe() inside the geturl like so

    getURL("javascript:showMe()");

    see not that complicated.
