Dynamic movies not refreshing properly

Hello all

I’ve got a movies m1, which contains dynamic text fields populated from a .txt file. m1 is embedded within a separate flash file, which has a mask and buttons b1…b3. When b1 is selcted, a variable is passed to m1, a short preloader clip plays, and then m1 plays. when b2 is set, a different variable is populated, and so on.

I’m having a couple of problems:

  1. when I switch between movieclips, the dynamic text shows up on top of the mask - could this be a problem with depths?
  2. the image within clip m1 doesn’t show at all when viewed via the embedding clip, though when I run m1 by itself, there is no problem.

Thanks in advance…
