I don't believe (not sure) if you can put an iFrame in flash..... But... I do know its possiable to enter information from a database (using php as an example) into flash for your content and etc... but I don't know the code for that someone else would have to help you out there or google it...

You'd probably be better off having a separate flash movie for the header, navbar, and whatever else, then place it all into a table, leaving a cell for content. This way you don't need any messy iframes and they have complete control over the content.

Alright, I'll help you.

But you'll need to know about flash paths. And XML documents.
