hello all.

i’m using the following code to dynmically attatch a MovieClip to the root of the stage.  
init();  
function init(){  
attachMovie(“cluster”, “cluster”, 2);  
cluster.\_x =200;  
cluster.\_y =125;  
attachMovie(“bottom”, “bottom”, 1);  
bottom.\_x =-1;  
bottom.\_y =504;  
}  
i’m using the following code (on a MovieClip button) to remove the “cluster” MovieClip when a button is clicked

function laterPa(){  
cluster.swapDepths(\_root.getNextHighestDepth());  
cluster.removeMovieClip();  
}  
cluster.centre.onRelease = function(){  
laterPa();  
helloCentre();  
btnBack();  
}  
All of this works great. My only problem is making the “cluster” MoiveClip re-appear in it’s original state once the back button is clicked.  
i tried calling the init(); function again but that didn’t work

any ideas

cheers,
