Hello, I have a link in a swf that gets a centered pop up window (which I got from following the tutorial). When I publish that swf by itself, I have no problem. However, when I load it externally from another swf (which was the reason of its creation), my link does not work and the pop up window does not appear. Any ideas?  
Thanks
