Late night dumb question time:

I have an SWF named “gallery.swf” that loads into an empty clip called “holder\_mc” in the parent movie. How do I call a function from gallery.swf that replaces gallery.swf with a file called “purchase.swf” in holder\_mc? The function I’m using looks like this:

```auto
function ProceedToCart():Void {
    _root.mcLoader.loadClip("purchase.swf",_root.holder_mc);
}

```
