okay made a form following a tutorial using components from library. I have this form on contact.swf which gets loaded into an empty movie clip instance container on main index.html.

The components work fine if I view just the contact.swf, however when i open index.html which loads different swf’s into container none of the drop menus work or the alert box. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
