hey everybody!!

I know this question might be stupid, but I can’t find the answer anywhere.  
I have a swf with pictures that exceed the stage. What I want to do is to move these images around and, when play the swf, be trimed and show only what is in the movie limits (the stage). When I open the html of that movie, it is fine (only the content within the stage is shown). But when I load this swf into an other swf, it shows all the content: in and out the stage.

(hope you understand)

Thanx in advanced!!
