2 Questions: I am making a site and I want to make seperatie directories for the menu, and the content files. I have made a .swf with a menu in it (index.swf). This menu has a little animation that is loaded externally (topanim.swf). I have set up my site maps like this: Site (Contains mainindex.fla) || ||=\>Menu (Contains index.swf and topanim.swf) || ||=\>Left(Contains content index, leftindex.swf) || ||=\>Content (Contains content pages, example: home.swf) I have made a little border, and saved this in the leftindex.swf. The content pages should be loaded into this file. So I have made an empty mc (in the leftindex.swf) with the instance name leftcontent. I have only done this with the contentstuff and not with the menu. I have created a empty page, named mainindex.swf. I’ve placed 2 empty mc’s on this page that load the menu (index.swf) and the content border (leftindex.swf). The menu loads fine except the little animation. How do I fix this? And also how do I load the content pages (home.swf) into the border by pressing a button in the menu? I know it’s a little complicated, and it can be done a lot easier, but I want to do it this way. It’s too hard for me to explain in english why. Please help me…
