This is dumb, and I should be able to get it, but I cant and Im running on sugar right now.

I have a movie with 8 layers. I am trying to click on a button in layer 2 and have it load into layer 1.

It should just be a simple

```php
on (release) {
	loadMovieNum("test.swf", movie);
}

```

right?

Whats going on?
