How can I have one SWF file to control other SWF. For example, I have a "Home"
button in Flash (header.swf) and when clicked, it loads the HTML page
(index.html) with a Flash Object with an intro Flash (intro.swf), but instead
going through the intro, how do I skip the intro and go directly to the end of
the intro in Flash?

Thanks!

Launch this other HTML page with intro flash with a parameter passed.

smth. like:

intro.swf?skip=false // or skip=true;


If generating your HTML pages with php, asp, jsp, cfm or whatever - not a
problem.
If using pure HTML only - create HTML page with javascript.

Thank you Horus, that's what I was thinking.

But how do I actually emplement this? I can pass the paramater via ASP
easily, but what ActionScript code would I use to read the parameter, then
control the movie with the parameter?

Thanks again for your !
