Load movie?

1

Ok I’m building a full flash site and have a question about loading a .swf. When the site first opens it loads a .swf file that in turn loads another into itself. the code I used do do that is.

createEmptyMovieClip("leftmc", 2);
leftmc.loadMovie("leftinfo.swf");
leftmc._x = 66;
leftmc._y = 99;

That loads fine, my problem is that I want to load another .swf file in to that same position when a nav. button on the main timeline is clicked and I assumed that I would use

      On (release) {
             leftMc.loadMovie("aboutus.swf");
         }

But that’s not working.
what should I do

Try adding _root to it.[AS]on (release) {
_root.leftMc.loadMovie(“aboutus.swf”);
}[/AS]

hey eg … :slight_smile:

if i understood correctly … _root won’t work
i think the buttons are in the swf loaded in the main movie :-\

i’d say

on (release) {
	this._parent.leftMc.loadMovie("aboutus.swf");
}
