This is driving me nuts… is it impossible to use attachMovie inside a movieclip you used loadMovie on? For example, I have this but it doesn’t work out:
imageHolder_mc.loadMovie("firstImage.jpg");
imageHolder_mc.attachMovie("secondImage_mc","attachedImage_mc",1);
Why doesn’t this just load the firstImage.jpg through the loadMovie method and then create an attachedImage_mc on the imageHolder_mc (with the secondImage_mc)? All its doing as of now is loading the first image… then if I comment the loadMovie part, it attaches the second image.
EDIT: Just a little more info. Basically I have a movieclip called imageHolder_mc that I created manually on stage. This movieclip calls LoadMovie to load in a JPG, but later on I need too replace the entire content of it with a movieclip from the library (still keeping the imageHolder_mc instance name). Any ideas?
Cheers!
