    loading external web page into a flash movie

    I'm trying to build a site using Flash MX 2004, i want to intergrate an external web page into my movie. Is this possible? I have a movie nested within a movie, kinda like a frame, and i want to load the webpage into that movie. The on (Rollover) function would almost do what I'm looking for i think but there isn't anything to rollover. Any help would be appreciated.

    You can't really load an HTML page into Flash - Flash only supports a small subset of html tags for text formatting purposes...

    You might possibly create an illusion by loading the html page in an iframe, positioned over your movie.

    I'd be satisfied with a well disguised illusion. Can you elaborate on the iframe suggestion at all? I'm not familiar.

    I have also seen this affect in a html email I received.
    Seems to load a live image of a webpage as a thumbnail inside the email.

    How is this done?
