Flash Website Help

Hi, i'm designing a website for a school project.
I have made a layout in photoshop and I have saved it as a bmp and then imported the image into flash.
I cannot figure out a simple way to make my links into links in flash which load in the main screen. PLease view this picture for a better idea. I'd like to turn Link 1, Link2, & link2 into buttons which load everything into the "main" region. FIY, the website does not have to be done in flash however I don't know how to go about doing it entirely in photoshop. I know you'll need to slice it up but that's about all.

If you can help, thanks in advance

ok, i'd say your best bet is to turn the entire top header into a flash movie and have the bottom as html. the flash itself is pretty basic, just add links to the animated buttons you create in flash. that help?

I am wondering how you do it somehting like this: http://www.tangentoriented.com/kairos/flash/

It's all in flash and each time you click on a link it loads.

well, the short version is that each button has a loadMovie action on it that loads a separate swf file into that lower space. its a little more involved than that but that's the general idea.

if you haven't already i'd work thru the tutorials under the flash help, they're a good start and will give you an idea of how things in general work in flash.
