    Does anyone know if it is possible to open an HTML page within a projector file? I'm essentially trying to create an eBook.

    Another option ---> Would it be possible to provide an EXE file to someone, and have that file use the LoadMovie command to pull the SWF files off my server? That way I could change the SWF files as needed, and won't have to resend out the EXE file? Basically, I don't ever use this command, so I don't know if this will work.

    Please help.

    Well, either option is okay
    Is the HTML page online, or offline?
    If it is online, you can use a GetURL action to open the default browser in the correct window.
    If it is offline, you can use an FSCommand action with an exec pointing to a .bat file (on windows). The bat file should contain the file of text:
    Code:
    start mypage.html
    Another option, for keeping your content updated is using the loadMovie action. You can load a .swf file off the internet either into a movie clip symbol, or replacing your original movie clip. This would keep the content integrated within flash.

    Good luck.
