Hi, I'd like to insert a Flash page as the home page of my website, but I have two problems, some sections of that Flash home will take me:

1) directly to some content on my drupal content
2) In the Flash Home there are sections that when I click on them will take me to the home of a section but that home is also in Flash?

For the first problem we tried creating a page-front.tpl.php but we had no luck.

Thanks in advance,
Ara.

page-front.tpl.php should work. What was the problem with this approach?

Also, #2 is a bit unclear. I believe you have other pages in your drupal installation that are running flash, and the main page will link to those, is this correct?

You can try creating a block for the front page to see if you have more luck.
1. Create a block called Front-Page
2. Place your Flash embed code inside of this block
3. Set your filter to PHP
4. Make this block appear only on the front page by changing "Page specific visibility settings" (use )
5. Put this block inside "content"
Your front page should now be running your flash file.

For your "other pages' that are running flash, you could simply embed your flash code inside of regular article, just make sure to set the filter to PHP. The other 2 filters are great, but can sometimes cause odd results.

Hope this helps.
