A very serious dynamic text problem

1

See guys… I have been trying to load this movie I call “profile.swf” into “Main_Stage_Movie.swf”… I have dynamic text in “profile.swf” but it doesn’t show up when I load it into “Main_Stage_Movie.swf”…

This is the code I had been using…
loadVariablesNum(“profile.txt”, 0);

(profile.txt being the text file I wanted to load…)

Someone before said that the path changes when you load a movie externally and suggested this code…

this.loadVariables(“profile.txt”, “pro”); //[“pro” being the name of the dynamic text field]

I tried that as well… But it still doesn’t work…

Please help me out…

I need it urgently…

I’d be really grateful…

dynamic text field instance names should be “name.text” etc so yours should be “pro.text” and that probably should work

Thanks for the attention but it doesn’t work at all… Cuz previously… With the code I had written… “profile.swf” used to show the text but when it was loaded into “Main_Stage_Movie.swf”, it didn’t… Now the text doesn’t show up at all!!! Not even in “profile.swf”… Please find an alternative…

if you give the textfield a variable name of _level0.pro and use
loadVariablesNum(“profile.txt”, 0);
in the main movie(which it is being loaded into), it should work.

what name of the mc that act as profile.swf’s container?
assume “profile.swf” is loaded into “yourContainer” mc in "Main_Stage_Movie.swf"
so the new path of the dynamic text is "_root.yourContainer.yourDynamictext"
and try to use loadVars instead of loadVariables

Thanks a lot ya’ll… I’ll definitely try that… Or I have come up with an alternative… So someway or the other I am gonna make it work… And thanks a million zillion times for the help and the tips and time you’ve given… Thank you very much… I’ll buzz u guyz if I run into a problem again! LOL! CYA!
