My movie won’t unload.

In my flash I have all my buttons loading their .swfs to level 1. The main pic that loads when the site first opens is on level 7. I have the following code:

\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ code:

```php
on (release) { 
createEmptyMovieClip("box", 1);
box.loadMovie("boxservices.swf");
box._x = 25;
box._y = 180;
}
on (releaseOutside) {
	unloadMovieNum(1);
                unloadMovieNum(7);
}

```

**and this is the main swf’s code**

```php

onClipEvent (load) {
	loadMovieNum("opener.swf", 7);
}

```

\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ : ec

So it creates the ‘box’ for the mc for the button and then when the user clicks a second button the original movie on lvl 1 unloads. But my main swf which is on lvl 7 does not unload… does anyone know why?

**instance.onReleaseOutside**

invoked when the mouse is released while the pointer is outside the button after the button is pressed while the pointer is inside the button
