Big problem with loadMovie (different levels)

Hi all, am pretty new to flash and creating my first full flash site. I have a problem with loadMovie. . Ok I have Clip1, Clip2 and Clip 3. Basically Clip2 loads into Clip1 from an external movie, and Clip3 is supposed to load in Clip2.

Here’s my problem. When I load Clip2 into Clip1, and when i press the button on Clip2 (thats now in Clip1) to load in Clip3, it doesnt load. (I hope im making sense!)

I used the word _root for both and i think it has something to do with this. But the containers for the Clip2 and Clip 1 are named differently. I remember seeing a tutorial about this much earlier but i just cant recall where now. Help appreciated! thksss
