I have a.swf (2 frame) and b.swf(10 frame as animation).

On A’s 1.frame, A loads B and B plays.  
I want, when \*\*B finished (on B’s last frame), B makes that A will goto 2.frame

Like: \*\*_MovieClip(root).gotoAndStop(3);_

dispatch an event on frame ten in b.swf and listen to it in a.swf

```auto

//frame 10, b.swf
dispatchEvent(new Event("COMPLETE"));

```

```auto

//frame 1, a.swf
b.addEventListener("COMPLETE", onComplete);

function onComplete( e:Event ):void
{
   gotoAndStop(2);
}

```

just make sure you set the listener after b.swf has completely loaded into a.swf.

hey, sorry should’ve been more clear…

you need to set the listener to the loaded content when it’s loaded - not on the loader.

so, first you need to listen to the loader to know when the swf has been loaded.

```auto

ldr.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onLoadComplete);

```

when the swf has loaded you can add the listener to it.

```auto

function onLoadComplete(e:Event):void
{
   e.target.content.addEventListener("COMPLETE", onComplete);
}

```
