Loading swf into swf

programming flash
1

Hi, Big Problem and it feels huge.

I have a product (button) which is in an external swf file that gets loaded into the root timeline. When the button released its supposed to load a popup window, which is living on the root timeline in a movieclip in the second keyframe of the mc.
The reason I have done it like this is because I want to use this popup graphic to load different dynamic text and images for each product(button) which is selected, but recycle the popup graphic.
Dear God how do I do this. Have I gone the wrong way about this.

cheers Georgie

can you try that again?

Post your ActionScript… the Script on your button, if you have any.

BUTTON
on (release) {
loadMovie("???", “_root.dummypopup”);
}

Does anything happen with your script the way it is now?

it would be so much easyer to use a function for it.
you can put one function on the root, and link to it from every seperate button.

something like:
//Call function:
_root.buttonclick(“content1.swf”);

//function on root:
function buttonclick(content){
loadMovie(content, _root.dummypopup);
}
