I’m new to Flash (about 6 weeks) and I have a bit of a problem

If you check out:

[http://uk.geocities.com/saltwater\_68/practice\_university3.swf](http://uk.geocities.com/saltwater_68/practice_university3.swf)

access the camera section you will see that the images scroll.

when I load this swf into my main site:

[http://uk.geocities.com/saltwater\_68/front\_page.htm](http://uk.geocities.com/saltwater_68/front_page.htm)

(enter the site, choose ‘practice’, then ‘personal’.)  
it will not work!  
accessing ‘personal’ loads the university3.swf into ‘loading\_mc’ which is just a blank movie clip, you can see the outline of it when you first load my site.

Why will it not work? what am I doing wrong? if anything.

The code I created for the scroll clip is as follows:

onClipEvent (mouseMove) {  
xmousepos1 = \_xmouse;  
ymousepos1 = \_ymouse;  
if (ymousepos1\>ymousepos2 && ymousepos1\>-75 && xmousepos1\>-40 && xmousepos1\<50) {  
tellTarget (\_root.box1.camera\_mc.nextFrame()) {  
}  
}  
if (ymousepos1\<ymousepos2 && ymousepos1\<100 && xmousepos1\>-40 && xmousepos1\<50) {  
tellTarget(\_root.box1.camera\_mc.prevFrame()){  
}  
}  
xmousepos2 = \_xmouse;  
ymousepos2 = \_ymouse;  
}

I’m sure it’s not pretty, but, learning curve and all that.

I would be greatfull for any help anyone can provide.
