Right, I think this is a pretty easily solved problem.

I have created a contact form following the tutorial: [http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/flash\_php\_email.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/flash_php_email.htm)

The contact form is contained within an externally loaded swf file as part of a full flash microsite.

This is the actionscript used to load the thanks/email confirmation frame:

onClipEvent(data){  
\_root.nextFrame();  
}

I think the problem is with the “\_root” phrase, as refers to the holder .swf’s \_root and not the contact forms?

I have tried various alternatives such as “\_root.currMovie” etc but I am not massively experienced with actionscript and I’m unsure of how exactly to phrase it.

Any help is appreciated.

Cheers.
