Hi All,  
I am new to flash and I ran across a roadblock in my project.  
My Main Page is a Flash Page, which opens all other swf files into a Blank\_MC  
The problem I seem to have is when I try to open an additional file inside this container in another blank MC, my buttons do nothing. I know I read somehere that to open inside, you need to stack the layers I believe? I tried the following with no luck.

(CODE)  
on (release) {  
loadMovie(“echoscd.swf”,\_lockroot.ShowStuff\_mc);  
}

(CODE)  
on (release) {  
loadMovie(“echoscd.swf”,\_parent.ShowStuff\_mc);  
}

I also tried \_parent.\_Parent.ShowStuff.mc and Blank\_mc.\_ShowStuff\_mc

you can see what i mean at [http://www.wolrdclasselvis.com](http://www.wolrdclasselvis.com) and click on the merchandise page. Any help would be appreciated.  
}
