I am using the external transition toturial from KIRUPA, and I have a question about it.

I am standing in MAIN\>EXTERNAL\_1.SWF and here there is a button. When clicking on the button I want to load a new external swf (EXTERNAL\_2.SWF) into the same container by using the external swf transitions

Again:

[COLOR=red]MAIN[/COLOR] \*\*\> \*\*[COLOR=darkgreen]EXTERNAL\_1.SWF[/COLOR] \*\*\> \*\*(button)

To

[COLOR=red]MAIN[/COLOR] \*\*\> \*\*[COLOR=blue]EXTERNAL\_2.SWF[/COLOR] \*\*\> \*\*SPECIFIC\_FRAME

If it is impossible - just let me know how to jump from EXTERNAL\_1.SWF (by button-hit inside the external swf) to a new external swf(entering on a specific framename)

PLEASE - I rellay need some help here boys! 🙂

Thx  
Johnny

By the way - I’m using this script to control the external swf’s:

on (release) {  
if (\_root.currMovie == undefined) {  
\_root.currMovie = “roadshow”;  
container.loadMovie(“roadshow.swf”);  
} else if (\_root.currMovie != “roadshow”) {  
if (container.\_currentframe \>= container.midframe) {  
\_root.currMovie = “roadshow”;  
container.play();  
}  
}  
}
