A simple question - path

what is the opposite of this path?
_parent.

thanks!

movieclipName.
you have to change “movieclipName” to the instance name of the movieclip!

what if it is a loaded movie?

I load website.swf movie onto loadwebsite movie clip.

then use the instance name of the movieclip you loaded the other mvoie into! or if you want to go further inside then you should be aware that the _root of the loaded movie is now in the movieclip that you loaded it into! and then from there oin you can use the same technique!

ex

mainmovie = _root.mcmc.loadMovie(“sub.swf”)
sub = _root.s.gotoAndStop();

then combine the 2
_root.mcmc.s.gotoAndStop();

the way I asked you was worng, sorry!

I have main.swf
I load website.swf onto loadwebsite (movie clip)
then, I want to go to a label (tmv2) within website.swf from main.swf.
do you understand?

I have this code

on (release) {
label = “tmv2”;
_parent.door.closedoor();
}

at the end of door(movieClip), there is this script

label = _parent.label;
_parent.gotoAndStop(label);
this.gotoAndPlay(“open”);

um, hard to explain.
I hope you got it.

thank you so much for your help!

I want to go to a label (tmv2) within website.swf from main.swf.

well I’m afraid I stil didn’t fully get what you’re saying but anyways it can be done like this:

_root.loadwebsite.gotoAndStop(label);

?? maybe send me a .fla file or sth!

I finally got it!
thank you for your help
