Hi everyone, long time no post. Just wondering if its possible to get AS to find out whether a swf has been loaded into a emptymovieclip? E.g. A if else statement to have AS do this or that depending on whether there is a movieclip in the empty movieclip. Anyhelp is as always much appreciated.

thanks in advance legion.
