Let me try to explain my problem…I will try to explain it the best I can, and I hope someone can understand it.
Ok, I have started making a flash website just for an experiment. On the site, I have a content area(movie clip) on one layer in the middle of the site that appears to the user to load whatever content the user clicks on of the navigation links. There is no actionscript to this movie clip, only the designed element.
On another layer in the main timeline, I have an empty movie clip positioned inside the content area to load the actual content each time. (It has a frame actionscript to loadVariablesNum(“home.swf”,0) ).
In an external .swf file, I created a scrolling text that could be loaded into the webpage. For example, I created a home.txt file and then loaded it into the external movie “home.swf”. Inside the external movie “home.swf” everything worked fine…text file loaded and it scrolled by using the arrows I made.
Now, back inside the website, on the home button, when clicked, it was my goal to load the external “home.swf” file. Well, it loads the graphic arrows fine, but the text does not load. I also have an actionscript on the home button of
on(release)
_root.content_show.loadMovie(“home.swf”); where content_show is the instance name of the blank movie clip.
I have tried everything that I know of to get this external movie to load when the Home button is clicked, and all I can get to show up is the arrows and not the text.
If anyone can help me with this issue, please let me know. I don’t know if I need to rearrange the layers, or what. I have tried everything I know with the actionscript.
I have also included the website .swf file so maybe someone can get a better understanding of what I am talking about.
If anyone can help me with this, or needs a better understanding of what I am saying, please let me know.
Thanks.
David
