I need help asap... is it possible to link from one swf file to another?

programming flash
1

i have created 2 swf files… (eg; a.swf and b.swf)
if i 1 2 link from a.swf to b.swf, i use this AS : ( this As works)

on (release) {
tellTarget ("_root") {
gotoAndStop(1);
loadMovieNum(“b.swf”, 1);
}
}

lets say if a.swf have 3 scenes in it, (scene1, scene2, scene3), and i 1 2 link b.swf back to the ‘scene3, frame1’ of a.swf, what will the AS be?

i tried using this:

on (release) {
tellTarget ("_root") {
gotoAndStop(1);
loadMovieNum(“a.swf”, “scene3”,1);
}
}

but it has and error…

First stop writing “1 2” instead of “want to”. Thats horrible and confusing.

Why are you using loadMovieNum if a.swf is already loaded? And besides, the sintax is wrong, the scene parameter doesnt even exist:

loadMovieNum("url",level);

If you want to reference movie a from movie b, you’d use _parent.
ie: If you have a button on movie b and you want to tell movie a to go to a certain frame:

on(press){
_parent.gotoAndPlay(frame);
}

I dont recommend using scenes though, as it can be hard to navigate through them sometimes.
