Hello!

My name is Rene. I’m using this tutorial to build a Photographer’s Gallery, and I made some slight modifications - and I need a little advice.

Instead of the one external swf getting loaded that we see in the example, I have (2).

One is the actual portfolios, each one a seperate swf. The other is the navigation (thumbnails that open the different portfolios).

Basically, the nav and the first portfolio load when you open the site. Then a user will be able to click on a thumbnail to see the other portfolios.

The code on the button is this;

on (release) {  
container.loadMovie(“Group2Gallery.swf”);  
container.play();  
}

Where “container” is the name of the instance empty movie clip where it gets loaded and “Group2Gallery.swf” is the movie to be loaded.

The error I get is this;

Target not found: Target=“container” Base="\_level0.container2"  
Target not found: Target=“container” Base="\_level0.container2"  
Where “container2” is the empty movie clip where the Nav is loaded.

Thank you in advance for your help…
