Hey guys

I have a frustrating problem, Im trying to load different swfs using the same loader, this works but the problem is that I can’t seem to change the location and size dimensions with other affecting the other swf… (one needs to be scaled smaller)

I’ve tried using the different varible names for each loader/swf… but then they stack on top of each other after another button is pressed… is there any possible way of doing this?

Thanks

```auto

var loader1:Loader = new Loader();
loader1.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.INIT, onComplete); 
function onComplete(e:Event):void {
loader1.scaleY =.9; //resizing to fit in certain area of gallery
loader1.scaleX=.9;
loader1.x= 410.9; //positioning
loader1.y= 235.3;
addChild(loader1);
}
var request2:URLRequest = new URLRequest("Match2.swf");
mat_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mat);
function mat(evt:MouseEvent):void { 
loader1.load(request2);
}
loader1.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.INIT, Dvd2);
function Dvd2(e:Event):void {
loader1.scaleY =.9; //resizing to fit in certain area of gallery
loader1.scaleX=.9;
loader1.x= 410.9; //positioning
loader1.y= 235.3;
addChild(loader1);
}
var request3:URLRequest = new URLRequest("dvdmenuproject.swf");
dvd_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, dvd);
function dvd(evt:MouseEvent):void { 
loader1.load(request3);
}

```
