I'm working on updating a web page for a non-profit I'm interning with. I've got a decent amount programming experience, not HTML particularly, but I'm figuring it out pretty easily.
I gained access to their web site and found a flash header in one of the directories that works as navigation, but was not in use on their old website. I'd like to put it to use in this update. I got it to work using frames, but when navigating using the sidebar, the URL doesn't change. I feel like this is a security issue, as the user should have the right to know what page they are on. I'm wondering if there is a workaround to get the URL to change when a link is clicked, but without reloading the flash heading?

see:

disregard the double heading on some of the pages, I still need to upload the new ones with changes made, but I want to solve this issue first.

Why not replace it with a static image once you're inside the website? Just screenshot it or something.

I'd honestly re-do it.
That flash header is very confusing

Ugh no Flash. So yucky. HTML5 Canvas, CSS3 Animations, hell even go about using HTML5 Video... but stay away from Flash!
