So I’ve been trying to get this loadMovie within an loadMovie to work…with no luck at all…

```auto
// This code is in my main 'shell' swf file
myBtn.onPress = function()
{
dropZone.loadMovie("projects/project1.swf");
}

// This code is in the first frame of my project1 swf file in the 'projects' folder
dropZone2.loadMovie("content/contentPage.swf");

```

Anybody have any ideas on this?
