Ok I need help and I need it bad…

_I got 2 .xml files which looks like_

```auto
 
<gallery timer="5" order="sequential" fadetime="2" looping="yes" xpos="0" ypos="0"> 
<image path="proba/1.jpg" /> 
<image path="proba/2.jpg" /> 
<image path="proba/3.jpg" /> 
<image path="proba/4.jpg" /> 
<image path="proba/5.jpg" /> 
</gallery> 

```

**I’m trying to display them in two diferent .swf files!**

_First gallery_ I click on display images just fine, but as soon as I click on _other_, things goes wrong. It display _first image_ from _second gallery_ and than it jumps back to the _first gallery_ again!!!

I’m guessing there must be some .as conflict, can anyone help out??
