Hi All,

Forgive me if this is less complicated than I had expected, but I don’t get to spend a lot of time working in Flash and therefore really haven’t learned a whole lot about ActionScript. Here’s the deal. I want to dynamically load a series of SWF’s to play one after another without the user having to click any buttons. I’ve build a nice shiny preloader that will allow each movie to load up, but I can’t seem to figure out how to make the next step. I’ve tried creating “placeholder” instances, and linking them but as I said, I just don’t have enough AS experience to do it right. Most of the time when I’m working in Flash I’m under a time crunch and I do everything through animation. This time I won’t be able to do that.

Thanks for taking a look at this post and any info you can provide is greatly appreciated!:thumb2:
