Hey guys, :kir:

**Problem 1:**

Alright, I wouldn’t normally post but I’ve been having a great deal of difficulty with the code for the “Adding Thumbnails To your Gallery”.  
Everything is fine when I publish the swf itself.

The problem is that when I load in this SWF as a dynamic movie into my main movie (which is my Flash based website),

The scroller only works if the  
container.\_x = 0 ;  
container.\_y = 0

OR if its the closest to that axis.  
I’d like to place this swf where X=352 and Y=15…but when I do, the scroller only moves right, and won’t move left.

**Problem 2**

It’s not really a huge problem, but with my dynamically loaded images and swf’s in the main movie, how can I close them when I hit a new button that links to a similar jpg or swf?  
I think the solution is simple, but I can’t seem to figure it out…

If anybody can answer these questions, I would GREATLY appreciate it. Thanks in advance.
