Hi All, I have some buttons inside a graphic that loads into a scrollpane. I am trying to load an external swf (“dan.swf”) into an empty movieclip (“container”) on the main timeline from these buttons.

The script im using is:

on (release) {  
\_root.loadMovie(“dan.swf”,“container”);

}

But instead of loading the swf into the container and “floating” the animation over the top of the original interface it seems to be replacing it, so I get the new swf with a white background and nothing else!

I have tested this with buttons not inside the scrollpane and it works like I expected, its just from inside the scrollpane that this happens!

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated

Thanks in advance
