All of my buttons are loading the external swf’s smoothly like kirupas tutorial. Here is my problem now…When the site opens, I want the first .swf to load in smoothly and leave smoothly like my buttons are working.

I have tried placing container.loadMovie(“home.swf”); in the first frame, but it doesnt bring the .swf in smoothly like it should be. Then I put the same script from the working buttons in teh first frame, but I get an error? Any help? Action Script is not my string point and I really would liek some nice in and out transitions. Thanks! attached is an updated .fla of the main page and one of the .swf fla’s the buttons load.

Thanks! 🔗 :rambo: :nurse: :cool: :goatee: :liar: 8-]
