Addressing problem

Hi,

I’m tryin to make a sort of photo gallery , with an effect were a sort dark shade (black, 33% alpha) slides in. This is done with easing, the size of the shade is held the same as the size of my photo’s. That all works but I can’t find a way to add text to be projected above the shape, this is because the text box (“scroller” is in a movie clip (“top”), and the button to change between the pictures is on the main timeline. How can load in the text? I currently using the following coding.

on (release) {
	containerMC.loadPic("pic1.jpg");
	loadText = new loadVars();
	loadText.load("foto1.txt");
	loadText.onLoad = function(success) {
		if (success) {
			_root.top.scroller.html = true;
			_root.top.scroller.htmlText = this.test;
		}
	};
}

I think the mistake is in the addressing to the scroller.
Thnx in advance.
