Loading a .swf

is there a way to load a .swf file into a movie and position it using x and y coordinates? ive tried using loadMovie and getURL but all i get is errors. please lemme know, thanks

It’s easiest if you have a container clip on your main stage. Create an empty movie clip, drag it to the stage where you want the external swf to load and give the empty clip a name like ‘holder’ or ‘container’. Then you can use loadMovie like for instance, using a buttton to load the external swf you could use this code on the button:
[AS]
on(release){
holder.loadMovie(“externalMovie.swf”);
}
[/AS]

p.s. the external swf loads from the top left corner so you have to think about that when you put the blank mc on your stage.

alright ill try it out, thanks
