Loading text in nested clip

1

i got and modified the following code for my movie. But it seems not to load the text from the external .txt file. the code resides in vita_group.swf and i’m loading the vita_group.swf into an empty movie clip (contents) which is located in my main movie. I think the targeting may be off but i’m not sure. I tried changing this.loadVariables (“filename.txt”) to _root.contents.loadVariables(“filename.txt”) but it didn’t work
any ideas?

onClipEvent (load){
this.loadVariables(“http://www.tonyoursler.com/tonyourslerv2/vita/collections.txt”);
loadText.onLoad = function() {
daTextBox.html = true
daTextBox.htmlText = this.daTextBox;
}
scrolling = 0;
frameCounter = 1;
speedFactor = 2;
numLines = 7;

origHeight = scrollbar._height;
origX = scrollbar._x;
needInit = false;

function initScrollbar(){

	var totalLines = numLines + daTextBox.maxscroll - 1;
	scrollbar._yscale = 100*(numLines)/totalLines;
	deltaHeight = origHeight - scrollbar._height;
	lineHeight = deltaHeight/(daTextBox.maxScroll - 1);
}
function updateScrollBarPos(){

	scrollbar._y = lineHeight*(daTextBox.scroll - 1);
}

}

onClipEvent (enterFrame){

if( needInit ){
	if(daTextBox.maxscroll > 1){
		initScrollbar();
		needInit = false;
	}
}
if( frameCounter % speedFactor == 0){

	if( scrolling == "up" && daTextBox.scroll > 1){
		daTextBox.scroll--;
		updateScrollBarPos();
	}
	else if( scrolling == "down" && daTextBox.scroll < daTextBox.maxscroll){
		daTextBox.scroll++;
		updateScrollBarPos();
	}
	frameCounter = 0;
}
frameCounter++;

}

onClipEvent (mouseDown){

if(up.hitTest(_root._xmouse,_root._ymouse)){
	scrolling = "up";
	frameCounter = speedFactor;
	up.gotoAndStop(2);
}
if(down.hitTest(_root._xmouse,_root._ymouse)){
	scrolling = "down";
	frameCounter = speedFactor;
	down.gotoAndStop(2);
}
if(scrollbar.hitTest(_root._xmouse,_root._ymouse)){
	scrollbar.startDrag(0,origX,deltaHeight,origX);
	scrolling = "scrollbar";
}
updateAfterEvent();

}

onClipEvent (mouseUp){

scrolling = 0;
up.gotoAndStop(1);
down.gotoAndStop(1);
stopDrag();

updateAfterEvent();

}

onClipEvent (mouseMove){
if(scrolling == “scrollbar”){
daTextBox.scroll = Math.round((scrollbar._y)/lineHeight + 1);
}
updateAfterEvent();
}

onClipEvent (data){
needInit = true;
}
