ok what happened with loadMovieNum … I feel really stupid, it doesn’t seem to work for me in flash 8…  
if I do

```auto

this.createEmptyMovieClip("container",1);
container.loadMovie("test.swf"); 

```

it works perfectly but if I use container.loadMovieNum(“test.swf”, 2); whatever level I use nothing happens…

Any reason why this is happening?

_EDIT_  
Does it have to do with the new security features of flash 8?? probably not becuase I tried exporting it as flash 7
