I am trying to have flash listen for a loadClip event when a button mc called portfoliob is released. When the loadClip event is triggered I’d like flash to then create another MC called container2 and load a .swf called pmenu. I understand the logic behind it but for the life of me I can not get it to work. Can anyone provide some suggestions?
