Hi, I´ve made myself a movie, this movie contains a song and a preloader…if you look at [www.thebasement.dk](http://www.thebasement.dk) you will see that this is all working as it should. BUT I want to load this movie into an empty movieclip on my main-homepage using a button with this action :

[color=blue]on (release) {  
\_root.music.loadMovie(“music.swf”);  
}[/color]  
[color=#0000ff][/color]  
[color=black]When doing so, something goes wrong - The preloader doesn’t appear and the song isn’t playing. Does anybody know what the problem could be ?[/color]

Regards, Soma
