If you are using hyperlink, on the “URL link” field, enter this:[AS]asfunction:launchMovie,site.swf[/AS]Replace site.swf with the swf you want to load.

Now on your timeline, place the following:[AS]function launchMovie(clip) {  
this.createEmptyMovieClip(“container\_mc”,100);  
container\_mc.loadMovie(clip);  
}[/AS]

This can be done using one of the undocumented AS Commands the ASFunction. This allows you to call functions directly from an html enabled textfield.

To do this, create a dynamic textfield which is html enabled and give it an instance name:

```auto

//I named my my dynamic textfield as tf...
tf.html = true;
tf.htmlText = "<a href='asfunction:loadSWF, swfToLoad.swf'>Click to load file!</a>";
//swfToLoad.swf should be the file you intend to load
//and loadSWF should be the function the will load it for you

//Set your load function
loadSWF = function(swfFileName){
loadMovieNum(swfFileName, 1);
}
//Here the swfFileName argument will be replaced by the one
//you specified at the html link...

```

Good luck!
