Hey guys!

I have a main movie that loads an external movie “photo gallery.swf”.

Now in that external you click on a button and it loads a picture into an empty mc called “images”.

Is it possible to have on the photgallery.swf some kind of coding that will load the picture in the mc “images” but into a frame label??

So in other words the external swf will have labels.

And i want it to go to that label when u press a button.

thanks,

:-\

I don’t think you can load an external movie into a label unless the imageMC is sitting on that frame label, but if all you want is to have the button on the external movie link to a frame label then use a script like this:

```php
on (release) {
	_parent.gotoAndPlay("framelabel");
}

```
