hey there,

i have a problem using the “Transitions Between External SWFs” tutorial from “Voetsjoeba” with an other location of the buttons than the main timeline!

here is the tutorial: [http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/transitions2.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/transitions2.htm)

there the note on page 2 tells me: “If your buttons are not located on the main timeline, you will have to change the path to the container movieclip. In this example the buttons are located on the main timeline, therefore ‘container’ targets the container movieclip correctly. Though, if they are not on the main timeline, you must change container to the appropriate path.”

so i’ve changed the path to the container but it doesn’t work!  
i’ve attached my version - hope someone can help me out on this! 🙂

cheers,
