Hello!

So, after I completed the [XML Photo Gallery Tutorial](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/xml_flash_photogallery.htm), I wanted to implement it to a little project.

I’ve searched around but can’t find the answer to this one. Should be an easy question to answer 😉

So, I’ve made an swf that uses the Gallery, and thats working just fine. But when I load that Swf thru a “main” swf, the captions and counting won’t work! It’s like:

\_root.container -\> then the XML gallery.  
ex: \_root.container.[color=DarkOrange]desc\_txt [color=Black]where desc\_txt is in the XML gallery.

Get my point? The textboxes are displaying, but just not actice.  
I’m using MX 2004.

Thanks for any help!
