</div>

this is used to load a movie on an event right:

contactb.onPress = function () {  
\_root.createEmptyMovieClip(“contact”, 1);  
loadMovie(“contact.swf”, “contact”);  
container.\_x = 0 ;  
container.\_y = 0 ;  
}

what if I want to load a movie simply at a certain point in the movie, ie a keyframe, what is the code applied to the keyframe and why/how is it different?

thanks!
