Communications with external swf

1

hello everyone.

new problem today.

ok so im bringing in a test external swf like so:

var loader:Loader = new Loader();                     
var url:URLRequest = new URLRequest("load2.swf"); 
loader.load(url);                                    
addChild(loader);

Now im trying to envoke a goto and play like so:

var loaded:Object;

loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, handleLoaded);

function handleLoaded(e:Event):void {
  loaded = e.target.content;
}

load1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, handleClick);

function handleClick(e:MouseEvent):void {
  if (loaded) {
    loaded.gotoAndPlay("outro");
  }

  //other content here.
}

this simple external test swf has 10 frames. @ frame 1 theres a “intro” label, @ frame 5 theres a “stop” action, and on frame 6, theres an “outro” label.

problem is that, when i click the button, it RE-imports the external swf and plays from frame 1.

any ideas/tips/hints etc or heck, even a better way to do it, id gladly appreciate. thanks in advance.
