Hello saviour

i am doing a website in which the bgload mc opens externally through the main mc. Now I have some menu buttons on the main mc which load on top of the background.Now I am trying to open one of the menu button swfs (externally loaded as well) in the main menu on top of the same background .  
For this i made a new blank mc and wrote this code in it  
nav\_mc.btn1.onRelease = function() {  
\_root.loadMovie(“myprofile.swf”, \_root.navblank\_mc);  
};

where nav\_mc is the instance name of the navigation mc, btn1 is button 1, navblank\_mc is my blank mc.

Now the problem is how to get myprofile.swf to open in a specific space for it on the stage.( like in a container, where the menu items loaded on the background ) Right now its opening as a whole document, without my background image  
☹

please help this is a matter of life n death:(
