Ok, so i’ve go this website:
[http://www.thebig7.co.uk](http://www.thebig7.co.uk)
The problem is that the main movie is supposed to load movies into it for each section of the site. But as you can see its not happening!
The code im using is:
```auto
loadMovieNum("flayer67_1.swf", 1);
```
this files are uploaded into the same dir on the server (htdocs) and ive even tryed to change the code to:
```auto
loadMovieNum("http://www.thebig7.co.uk/flayer67_1.swf", 1);
```
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Excuse me? If you knew what you were talking about I might just take you seriously. This question was posted in Random. I moved it to the Flash MX section only to find that he also posted the same question in Flash MX 2004.
Don’t worry about me Xp me and al the other mods are well aware on how to run the forums.
edit: I deleted your post because it has nothing to do with the question.

anyways, back to the poster’s question: maybe you should try just loadMovie() and not loadMovieNum(). The difference is that loadMovieNum() is for variables (like dyn. text, etc) and loadMovie() is for swf and jpg files.

could it be a simple problem such as wrong file names, or a possible miss spelling somewhere?
