Hey,

Here’s a snippet of code:

client\_list\_mc.main\_mc.main.pangea\_media\_btn\_mc.onPress=function()  
{  
if(pangea\_media\_launch==false && external\_start==true)  
{

```
        loadMovieNum("http://www.mysite.com/swf/swf_portfolio/21.swf", 1);

```

There are multiple parts that are just like this, each just loads a different swf i.e 20.swf, 21.swf, 22.swf. My goal is to load a new external swf when each of these buttons are clicked.

Everything fires fine as I’ve put in traces but when I add the loadmovienum function  
‘loadMovieNum(“[http://www.mysite.com/swf/swf\_portfolio/21.swf](http://www.mysite.com/swf/swf_portfolio/21.swf)”, 1);’ the entire movie locks up and the rollovers, rolloffs, and onpresses don’t even work. I tried loadmovie before but I can’t get it as I’m loading an external movie into a movie that’s already been externally loaded.

can you only have a certain amount of loadmovienum functions? should i use unloadmovie(1) each time before the new movie loaded-could that have anything to do with freezing everything up.

could it also be because of the level i’m loading it into (1) should i put a higher number?
