Little error with _x _y

I have an external flash movie, guestbook.swf, at an ip address on the internet.

i have the main flash movie at a different place on the internet also.

i wanted to load the external flash movie into the main flash movie and it worked,… partially.

the external movie is loaded but shows up in the upper left corner hovering above the main movie. i wanted it to be in a different spot.

here’s my script from the main movie.

{
createEmptyMovieClip(“container”, 1);
loadMovie(“http://64.161.176.10/GuestBook.swf”, “container”);
container._x = 600;
container._y = 500;
}

the guestbook loads but gets placed in the corner. i feel so close to the answer but not exactly.

p.s. one more thing, i am sort of confused on the “container” part. do i really need to worry about it?

i would appreciate if someone replied and helped me.

can you add your whole script? because container may be placed in the root, or somewhere else, and i need the script to determine that. to play it safe, do this:

{
createEmptyMovieClip(_root.container, 1);
loadMovie("http://64.161.176.10/GuestBook.swf", _root.container);
_root.container._x = 600;
_root.container._y = 500;
}

for the time being.
