So I’ve been searching for this for a few days now, and I’m coming up empty…I’m fairly new to AS3, I’m used to AS2 haha.

I’m trying to create a site which loads external SWFs into a Moviefor its content, and the entire site is contained in a Movie Clip located on the main timeline.

I keep getting a 1009 error, so I’m assuming that AS isn’t drawing the loader where I want it to be, so I’m fairly certain I’m doing something wrong…haha.

Here’s a link to my Files: [http://www.distraktmedia.com/Distrakt.zip](http://www.distraktmedia.com/Distrakt.zip)

Any help is appreciated! 🙂
