Hi…  
I’m loading an external .swf into a empty mc… the loaded swf gets data from a xml-file.When I call the external swf from the main movie it does not show the xml-data. The external movie is just within another folder, strangely enough the loaded swf works fine by itself but not when loaded in main.swf so I guess that the xml-path is right.

avd1\_btn.onRelease = function(){  
\_root.holder.loadMovie(“section1/Avd1.swf”, 1);  
}

the folder “section1” contains the swf(Avd1) and the xml-file for that swf

guess theres some “level” problem… but I’ve tried this.\_lockroot = true; in some ways… but there might be another problem so if anyone knows something please say anything 😉
