I have used this magnificent tutorial

[http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/loading\_random\_movie.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/loading_random_movie.htm)

and it works beautifully. Only problem is the random movies contain buttons and .flv’s

the buttons and .flv’s play perfectly in the original .swf’s, but not when they load randomly - please see links below for the issue

here is the issue

ORIGINAL SINGLE .swf (click “show me how” button and embedded movies play)

[www.jewishlifeseries.com/shabbat/1.swf](http://www.jewishlifeseries.com/shabbat/1.swf)  
 [www.jewishlifeseries.com/shabbat/izak.swf](http://www.jewishlifeseries.com/shabbat/izak.swf)  
 [www.jewishlifeseries.com/shabbat/lani.swf](http://www.jewishlifeseries.com/shabbat/lani.swf)

RANDOM LOADING .swf (click show me how button and movies do not play)  
[www.jewishlifeseries.com/shabbat/index7.html](http://jewishlife.us/shabbat/index7.html)

note the movies randomly load  
perfectly but the .flv within the movie does not play

Your help is appreciated

Thank You  
Gary
