Movie loading woes

1

I’m using this action script

on (press, release) {
loadMovieNum(“http://www.bleh.com/Flash.swf”, 272);
}

now I thought that this would close my old movie and load the new movie on frame 272. I must be wrong it loads the new movie overlapping the old movie making a mess. Anyone know how to ditch the old movie and load in the new movie on frame 272? thanks.

That doesn’t mean you’re loading it into frame 272, that means you’re loading it into level 272 so that’s why it’s overlaping your old movie.

I think you should do this tutorial to get a better idea of how to load movies.

i see that once you make another button choice from the main movie it automatically closes the previous swf. but how would you code a button that is located in the seperate swf’s so that you could give users an option to close that swf?? i’ve seen the tutorial on this already but it doesn’t include anything on closing swfs.

anyone out there know??
