External movie clip

1

Hi, for my site I am loading swf’s into a movie clip. My problem is that the movie clip only loads 1 frame of the movie. Any suggestions? The two files below are the main files. lyrics.fla is the file that contains a two frame movie. you can run this one alone and it will work (clicking on titles launches the second frame). if you try and run it from pllyrics.fla (the preloader) nothing works. if anyone can help itwould be greatly appreciated.

I can’t look at the files since I’m at work but check in your external swf that you are loading and either add this line at the beginning:

this.lockroot=true;

or replace all instances of _root with _parent

i have tried replacing all instances or _root with _parent, but unforunately I have had very little luck. I will try adding the line and then I will let you know. If you have a chance to look at it when u get home that would be great.

where do I add this line of code?

this.lockroot=true;

Do I put in the first frame of the movie I am loading, or do I put it in the loader actions?

I guess in the first frame your loading…like rberry88 has said)
