I want to make a button template for my website. This way all the buttons will look the same. The button will be really boring and basically be a white square with a stroke and some text on it. When you rollover the button, something happens.

I'm trying to figure out a way to set the text and the button action outsite of flash. This way I can use the same swf file, and set the text paramenter/variable and the action. My goal is to be able to easily make buttons on the fly outsite of flash with alittle coding.
Just incase you need to know:
My site is currently written is JSP.
I know you can write menus using XML and if you change the xml, you will change the flash file without going into flash.

I know this can be done, I just dont know what exactly I should be looking for to do this.

You may take a look at this flash file (http://www.flashmo.com/preview/flashmo_088_menu_xml) as an example.
