i cant find any tutorial talking about differences about \_root, \_parent, \_global, this and other similar identifier. it’s always a mess when i come to do scripting especially when im using mc.loadMovie. any one know any tutorial website that tell us wat’s the differences, when they are in used. and so on. i think kirupa should hav tis tutorial - “\_global, \_parent, \_root, this”
