i have a section in my flash animation that when a button is pressed, it transtitions from one extrenal swf to another. i used a tutorial from here.
the problem is that, when i press another button, the first external swf that is loaded, plays instead of the second one.
this is what i am doing:
i have some external swfs set up that animate here is the code that i use for them:
_root.pcontainer.loadMovie(_root.currMovie+“.swf”)
that is on the last frame of the external swf.
now, i have some buttons that are nested inside a movie clip that operate the external swfs. here is the AS that i am using for those:
on (release) {
if (_root.currMovie == undefined) {
_root.currMovie = “cramer”;
pcontainer.loadMovie(“cramer.swf”);
} else if (_root.currMovie != “cramer”) {
if (pcontainer._currentframe >= pcontainer.midframe) {
_root.currMovie = “cramer”;
pcontainer.play();
}
}
}
also, i have a frame script that calls up the first selection:
_root.currMovie = “cramer”;
pcontainer.loadMovie(_root.currMovie+“.swf”);
stop();
i’m not sure what the problem is. i’ve recreated this in a new movie, and it works. i’m thinking that it has something to do with the way that i need to label my MC within the AS, but i’m not sure on how or where to put it.
