so here is my problem…

i have a site where i have a main swf with the rest of the site loading into the main one. on one of the “rest of the sites” swf’s i have dynamic text and it loads fine when i test it but when i put it in the main movie the text isn’t there. the rest of the video is there but no text. most of the action script and stuff i got straight off of this site so i figured this was the best place to come for help. any ideas?

thanks in advance
