I am trying to deal with “load movie” and “PHP” file here.  
It it hard to explain but will try.

I created a GuestBook flash movie using PHP file. That GuestBook flash movie will be loaded into a main movie. Then, it will load PHP when the GuestBook is signed. But when the movie is loaded, it doesn’t load PHP file.

When I simply open the GuestBook flash movie without getting it loaded into another movie, the GuestBook load PHP and it actually works.

all the files, Main flash movie, GuestBook flash movie, GuestBook PHP file and GuestBook txt file are in the same folder.

you can view the file if you go to  
[http://www.takashi0808.com/htm/GuestBook.swf](http://www.takashi0808.com/htm/GuestBook.swf)  
(flash file, which works)  
[http://www.takashi0808.com/htm/flash.htm](http://www.takashi0808.com/htm/flash.htm)  
(loaded movie, which doesn’t work)

What can I do to properly get the txt and PHP file loaded?  
Thank you!

You should use as many relative paths as possible.  
With absolute paths: The \_root from your loaded movie suddenly relates to the \_root of the mainmovie from the moment your file gets loaded into that movie.

so use this. or \_parent. -\> that way it’s easier to combine different movies.
