suppose i have the following code on a movieclip  
[AS]  
onClipEvent(load){  
var someVariable = 0  
someFunction = function(){  
//do something  
}  
}  
onClipEvent(enterframe){  
someVariable++  
if(!\_parent.something){  
someFunction()  
}  
}  
[/AS]

and i want to put that code INSIDE a frame of the movieclip instead of ON the movieclip, i would have to use this.onLoad = function() {blah blah} and this.onEnterFrame = function() {blah blah} and you would suppose it would work the same, but it doesnt work at all. Am i doin something wrong? i appreciate all comments/advice/etc…
