loadMovie matter

1

I have a movie, in which I pull text files from an external source. I am using buttons with coding similar to

 on(Release){
loadText = new loadVars();
loadText.load("txt/ text (1).txt");
//creating the loadVarsText function
loadText.onLoad = function() {
  scroller.text = this.kirupatext;
};
}

so as to control the input. I was wondering if i could apply this coding on a seperate movie, and call it into my main movie (in which the dynamic text filed is).
I have attempted to do this, but to no avail…

Sure you can, just make sure the paths are correct, especially for:

scroller.text = this.kirupatext;

If scroller is the name of the dynamic textbox then you can change it to _root.scroller.text

You’ll probably have to change ‘this’ also as ‘this’ always refers to the timeline of the movieclip the code is in.
