im working on a site where i want a square to open from a line and then have scrollable text within the box. i made the box movie clip, saved it as a .swf and imported it into my home page keyframe. now, i want the same animation to play each time the user clicks onto a new page with a text box. so, when they click on About from the Home page, the About page opens up, starting with the opening text box. I tried putting the same .swf into the About keyframe, but it doesn’t open up, its just there. any ideas on how to fix this?

ps: CS3 AS3 por favor.

thanks in advance.

You may want to do a search in the help file for a class called Loader. It basically does all the work for you.
