Loading external SWF file displays content outside swf-box

Hi guys

I’m having a “problem” with loading an external .swf in my main flash swf movie (which is a website).
When the external .swf loads and displays itself on the main swf (website), the complete external swf file is viewable. To clarify: this external .swf has a world map that moves with a tween. If the animation is played within the main swf, I can see the whole world map and not just only that specific part of the world map that is visible on the “original” .swf

How do I solve this best?

  • Make a mask over the complete external.swf? Where should i make the mask in the external .swf itself or on the movieclip in my main swf (website)?

  • Is there a parameter that i can use?

  • Is there a export option for this?

Thanks in advance
