HELP! targetting loading text in external swf

I used the loading external text with CSS tutorial here on Kirupa at:
http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/cssfile.htm

Now it works fine when I run the movie on its own, where it occurs inside of a movie clip called “backtset” inside a file called “current.swf”.
However, I’m loading this movie into a container called “contents” in my main movie and the text-loading code obviously doesn’t work as is:

var format = new TextField.StyleSheet();
var path = "jbcss.css";
format.load(path);
format.onLoad = function(success) {
	if (success) {
		output.styleSheet = format;
		myLoadVar  = new  LoadVars  ();
 		myLoadVar.load("news.txt") 
		myLoadVar.onLoad  =  function (success){ 
			if  (success  ==  true)  { 
				output.variable  =  "news" 
				output.htmlText=myLoadVar.news;
			}
		}
	} else {
		output.text = "Error loading CSS file!";
	}
};

I’ve tried many different targetting approaches, but being self-taught, I’m not too keen on targetting syntax. If anyone could help it would be greatly appreciated.

Once again the path is like this:
The dynamic text box is inside a movie clip called “backtest” within the file “current.swf”. “current.swf” is then loaded into a container called “contents” in the main movie.
