Hey all

I’ve been away from flash for a while, and I’m having a problem.  
I created a .swf similiar to the coninuous movement tutorial, and I’m trying to load that movie into another movie, which will be the “main” page for my homepage.

I loads fine, but only plays through once. That is the lines move to the right, but they never show up again to keep moving.

I’m not sure what is wrong, probably something with the loadMovie or something.

help is appreciated, i’ve attached my “main” .fla and the .swf banner in the zip file.

thanks

chopper

i dont understand it your njc.fla doesn’t open ok lets take it other way so your top.swf works fine in the top movie in the root of your animation put play(); code and in the njc movie put stop(); in that frame when you have loadMovie code maybe this is the reason !
