If I knew anything about AJAX, I just might do that.

My original idea for this project is to make an easy-to-use one-paged mapping system. Considering I only know flash and the scripting behind it, this is the limit to my ability which is unfortunate which is why I'd like to request help from anyone with the time to invest in this.

I can complete the project using only flash and actionscript however I know there are better ways to do this. What I want is a swiveling menu of continents. Let's say you select Antonica, it will zoom into the the land thus showing the zone connections. When you select your zone (depending on how many maps are in that one zone), a horizontal map selection will appear ascending from top to bottom levels. You will select your floor and then hover over the points on the map getting details about each point (which will be pulled from an xml datasheet). There will also be a print button and a info button which will give you a soft-popup giving the information in bold legible text.
