Flash sites! Huh?! o.O

[hnh]

Well I'm relatively new to flash, I was looking through the web in search for some tutorials. It's all been very helpful but i'm ready to tackle my next project.

I want to make a full flash website, my question is..anyone know any good tutorials on how flash websites work? I mean..the basic skeletton of a flash site..does it work with scenes? Are all the pages/info loaded in the same file?

I'm not really looking on how to make one, i'm want to know how they work.

not with scenes!
put the initial images and navigation system into the main swf, and load movies into the main swf from button clicks etc. So for example, the main swf might hold a picture (background), and 3 buttons - Home, contactme and otherstuff.
On button click of 'Home' load the home.swf into the main swf with a loadMovie/loadMovieNum/loadClip. You can choose to load to different levels or movieclip containers, and unload when you are finished with them, or make them invisible until needed again (to prevent reloading).
On button click of contactme, load the movie contactme.swf into the main swf... and so forth.

The basics are relatively simple.
Make sure you incorporate preloaders for all movieclips loading into the main from outside - moviecliploader class is best for that.

good luck
