External swfs problem

1

Hi
I have made an “newsscroller” with a preloader that works just fine! But when i’m loading it in to an external MC it just wont work!
Here is the code for the newsscroller, can someone give me a tip??

The “controller”:

if (_root.up) {
_root.news.scroll += 1;
} else if (_root.down) {
_root.news.scroll -= 1;
}
gotoAndPlay(1);

Up button:

on (rollOver) {
_root.down = true;
}
on (press, release, releaseOutside, rollOut, dragOut) {
_root.down = false;
}

Down button:

on (rollOver) {
_root.up = true;
}
on (press, release, releaseOutside, rollOut, dragOut) {
_root.up = false;
}
