I will initially explain my problem before I upload any files to the forum or the server and pray to god you can help (I have a deadline approaching)

I have made a simple site with some simple transitions. each button on my site loads in an external swf file into an empty movie clip.

One of these swf files is a guestbook which works when i dont load it into the empty clip and test it alone on my server (sending in the guestbook swf, html, php, and empty text file)

Now then, when i load in the guestbook into the main swf, nothing happens on the server when I test it - I am lost and now come to you people for advice. It obviously has something to do with being loaded into an empty movie clip that is causing conflict.

I am very new to actionscript and know nothing about php. As I said earlier, I will upload any files for you to look at but I thought i’d ask first, so you could have a think about whether or not you might be able to help.

I DESPERATELY need help here.

Thank you very much.
