Hi everyone!

I’ve followed [this tutorial](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/photogallery.htm) and made a functional photo gallery.

Now, I want to add that photo gallery on my site. I’ve created a flash button and assigned it this action:

```auto
on (release) {
    _root.contents.loadMovie("Pictures.swf");
}

```

“contents” is the container movie clip, and “Pictures.swf” is photo gallery i’ve made. Now, when i click on button, Pictures.swf does load (arrows are being shown), but when i click on them, nothing happens.

Please help me to make my gallery functional 🙂
