; My advice, if you want it, would be to just put your foot down and
: tell the client in the nicest way possible that the fact they know
: what frames are doesn't impress you, remind them who the web designer
: is and tell them that the web designer says using frames is asinine.

 unfortunately i think i'll lose the client if i did that & my boss
 has his mind made up aswell  ;o\

: I'd be happy to do this for you ... it's not that much of a task (and
: you could certainly figure it out) ... it's much harder to explain
: what to do than actually do it.

 if your sure its not too much trouble i would really appreciate an
example to work from, i've searched
 the net and i've had no luck in finding a tutorial that shows me how
 to do this.  i've found plenty that go from flash out to javascript
 but not the other way round.  i'm quite sure i'm not searching for
 the right thing...

: - In your publish settings, choose the Flash with FS Command
: - In the html that's generated, create two fscommands, one to set
: your xpos variable and one to set your ypos variable.
: - in your onmouseovers in the other frame call a script on that same
: page that first checks for the existence of the xymovie (you will
: have to do it differently depending on whether it's IE or not)
: - ... I dunno ...  there's other things as well ... I don't think I'm
: doing you a service here I guess ... all this stuff is in the
: documentation available in various places on the web ....
 ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬

 meanwhile i will try to do your suggestion

 thank u so much for all this

 ;o)
