I have a swf that is being loaded into another swf without a “container” clip (which i am not quite sure how to implement). The loaded swf has _root references so in the very first line of script i placed this:
this._lockroot = true;
and then followed up with this:
_root.menuleftopen1 = false;
_root.menuleftopen2 = false;
_root.menuleftopen3 = false;
_root.menuleftopen4 = false;
_root.menuleftopen5 = false;
_root.menuleftopen6 = false;
_root.menuleftopen7 = false;
_root.menuleftopen8 = false;
_root.menuleftopen9 = false;
_root.menuleftopen10 = false;
_root.menuleftopen11 = false;
_root.menuleftopen12 = false;
_root.menuleftopen13 = false;
;
function setMenuClose() {
for (z=0; z<14; z++) {
if (eval("/:menuleftopen"+z) == true) {
eval(“menu.menu”+z).gotoAndPlay(“Swoop Up”);
}
}
}
stop();
I also have embedded MC that refer to this _root script. So my problem is that the swf loads but the script which is supposed to close a menu when one menu is opened does not work, they just all stay open when i click other menus. Any suggestion on how to resolve this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
