Hi all. I was hoping somebody here can help me. What I am trying to do is load a movie into a new movie, simple enough. Ive done this a few times and never had a problem. But the problem here is as follows. I have a menu bar fly onto the screen. Now the button that I want to press to load the movie is not following the action I am telling it. actually, i am probably using the wrong action. In the past I would just have the button there at all times and it works fine. So I assume that since this button is part of a movie, that is what is causing me problems. Here is the script that I am using.

on(release){  
this.portfolio.loadMovie(“web.swf”);  
}

portfolio of course being my blank movie.

Can anybody give me a hand here. I assume it has something to do with the path. Please help!!

Thanks so much

Joe
