I’ve been trying to fix this off and on for weeks now, and it really makes no sense to me why it will not work. I’m creating an empty movieclip, calling loadMovie on an external file to load into my newly created movieclip, which all works fine (no security issues).
When I test from flash, all the controls (play(), stop(), etc) work fine. Once I run it through the browser, however, all of the controls stop working, even though other code is still able to access the movie’s properties.
It’s seriously making me crazy as it makes no sense to me whatsoever, and it’s not really doing anything fancy. Hopefully the included flash file will help explain it further. You will need to replace the URL in the loadMovie method.
I’ve tried searching for anything that would cause the loaded clip to go out of scope, but I’m seriously stumped.
