Hi everybody, i need to load a movie into my container, i’m using this AS:

\_root.createEmptyMovieClip(“container”, 1);  
loadMovie(“home.swf”, “container”);  
container.\_x = 280 ;  
container.\_y = 100 ;

it’s work ok, but i need to load the movie on frame 3. Because on frame 1&2 i got a preloader.  
Can somebody tell me how can i modify the AS above, to load the movie on frame 3.  
Thanks!

Yeah, i tried but doesn’t load the movie. I think i should specify with AS in what frame i want to load the movie.
