Ok, so I am doing a full web site in Flash for the first time and I am still trying to figure out how everything goes together. With that said I’m sure the problem is a easy for an Actionscript wiz.

I’ve created my index flash page so that all the supporting pages/swfs load into it. I’ve also created a separate FLA/SWF for the navigation that I am loading into the index file. Problem is when I click on the navigation in the index it will not load the other SWF files?

Here is the code that I have attached to a button instance in the navigation FLA:

[color=Blue]

> stop();  
> btnManu.onRelease = function () {  
> \_level0.myMCL.loadclip(“manufacturers.swf”, 5);  
> };  
> [/color]

I also tried to nest a button into a movieclip and see if that was the problem to no avail. Here is the code for that attempt:  
[color=Blue]

> MM\_aboutUs.onRelease = function () {  
> this.enabled = false;  
> \_level0.myMCL.loadclip(“about\_us.swf”, 5);  
> };

[color=Black]Any help would be greatly appreciated![/color]
