external .swf submenu problem
I have 2 containers on my main timeline, CONTENTcontainer and IMAGEcontainer, as well as a menu that loads .swf files into CONTENTcontainer. (this part works like magic)
I want the CONTENTcollections.swf to function as a submenu and load IMAGEfw2009.swf into the IMAGEcontainer on the main time timeline. (it looks so simple…?)[COLOR=Black]

CONTENTcollections.swf** button code:
(intro and outro animations from Kirupa tutorial)
http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/transitions.htm
on (release) {
if (_root.currImage == undefined) {
_root.currImage = “IMAGEfw2009”;
IMAGEcontainer.loadMovie(“IMAGEfw2009.swf”);
} else if (_root.currImage != “IMAGEfw2009”) {
if (IMAGEcontainer._currentframe >= IMAGEcontainer.midframe) {
_root.currImage = “IMAGEfw2009”;
IMAGEcontainer.play();
}
}
}
I am cruising the forum and tutorials as you read.
Would _parent help?
