I am trying to load images externally but I don’t think I am using the right code.
I am using the following in flash and it works fine, but when I bring it into dreamweaver it stops working. Any thoughts?
b1.onPress = function(){
startPreload(“load/store.swf”);
}
My thoughts are that it can’t find the files when it goes live. How can I change the code above so that it reads the files once uploaded to a server?

I have no clue what that means. If I am doing something wrong I am open to any advice anyone has.

I think you may need to post more code…
you should use **containerMC.loadClip(“something.swf”)** really
this a two way process, “do it for me” makes me more intent on never having children 😛
