On my main stage I have two buttons that I will use to load  
2 different MC´s with (Flash MX) !!

My Code used on the same frame as Button1 is:

but.onPress = function () {  
\_root.createEmptyMovieClip(“container”, 1);  
loadMovie(“1.swf”, “container”);  
container.\_x = 12 ;  
container.\_y = 241 ;  
}

My Code used on the same frame as Button2 is:

but.onPress = function () {  
\_root.createEmptyMovieClip(“container”, 1);  
loadMovie(“2.swf”, “container”);  
container.\_x = 12 ;  
container.\_y = 241 ;  
}

Whats wrong here ? I tried to change button2 to be loaded on level 2 didn´t work either !

but.onPress = function () {  
\_root.createEmptyMovieClip(“container”, **1** );  
loadMovie(“2.swf”, “container”);  
container.\_x = 12 ;

**but**.onPress \<-- is for both insdtances of the code, that means you are only assigning this to one button and not two

plus you need a different name ans a different depth
