major problem with this: i have a simple swf that i’m using to load successive swf’s.

on keyframe one i have:

loadMovieNum(“scene\_01.swf”, 1);  
stop();

when “scene\_01.swf” reaches its final key frame, i have this:

\_level0.gotoAndPlay(2);

which takes me to the 2nd key frame that loads a “scene\_02.swf” at level 1.

all this works fine when i preview from flash and when i view it in the flash player.

it wont work when i embedded it in an html page though! i just get a blank movie with nothing playing.

why would this work in the player but not when embed in an html page?

please help!

cheers,

jake
