    Question

    : I'm preparing to build my site in Flash and I am receiving conflicting advice
    : Should I create multiple scenes to handle the differnt elements of the site or should I create nested movie clips???
    : OR should I create mulitple swf files within HTML tables???
    : My main concern is file size of course and loading time.
    : What's your experience?

    If filesize is a concern, build your basic interface in the main .swf
    Then load the other pages (.swf) when they are needed to _level1 (on top) of the main movie.
    But I think the most effective method is to mix HTML and Flash. To use Flash for all Headlines and graphics and menus.
    For an example look at http://www.highscore.nu/index2.asp
    where 6 or seven .swf are placed in different frames in the frameset. For a total of about 60 kb.
