Hi All! I’m new to the forum and posted about a week ago, you guys really helped with my last question so hopefully someone can help with this one. Here goes…

\*\*[COLOR=Navy][COLOR=Indigo]-Flash file titled “HOME3.fla” has a blank movie clip with instance name “main”

-When “HOME3.swf” plays, movieclip “main” automatically loads another swf titled “HOME\_thumbnails.swf”

-“HOME\_thumbnails.swf” has a thumbnail grid of images, and another blank movie clip inside itself, instance name “all\_rollovers”, that when the thumbnails in the grid are rolled over a hover caption appears over it.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkRed]-I need a movieclip in “all\_rollovers” that when pressed “main” in “HOME3.swf” unloads [/COLOR][/COLOR]**[COLOR=Navy]**[COLOR=DarkRed]“HOME\_thumbnails.swf” and then loads an swf titled “PHOTOGRAPHY.swf” at the frame titled “photography\_two”[/COLOR]\*\*

[COLOR=Black]Make sense? Did I mention I’m not Flash savvy?.. Please help if you can, I’d appreciate it.

Thanks!

Best,
