You can use popup layers.
See this sample:popup layers.xar
I think there is a tweak to stop the layer from closing when you click on the page.

Another option is to use iframes.

Hello dylon

The example file above does not contain the SWF file so you won't be able to see the Flash animation. But look in the Page and Layer Gallery to see how James has put the individual images on different pop up layers.
