Ok, I keep hitting Command-left arrow and deleting my message in progress, so I’m going to try and get through this without having to type this out for a fourth time.
I’m using site.swf to load different sections of my site (profile, portfolio, contact, etc.) each into their own level (level 1 for profile, 2 for portfolio, and so on).
The problem that I’m having is once I’ve loaded profile into level 1 and have a new navbar on screen I want to load and play the portfolio movie without having to go to site.swf. So instead of the user going profile.swf > site.swf > portfolio.swf I’d like them to be able to go from profile.swf > portfolio.swf. Basically move from subsection to subsection without interacting with site.swf (unless they hit the home button).
Now as I said earlier, I wanted each subsection to load into it’s own level. So profile.swf is level 1 and portfolio.swf is level 2. I thought all that would be needed would be to load the portfolio into level 2, unload level 1 and then play level 2. So users could hop from subsection to subsection and each movie would get loaded and unloaded as needed.
The problem is that I can’t get the portfolio movie to start playing after it’s loaded into level 2. Here’s one version of the code I was playing with.
on (release) {
loadMovieNum("portfolio.swf", 2);
unloadMovieNum(1);
_level2.play();
}
I’ve tried adding _root in front of the loadmovie and play commands, but nothing seems to work!
Can anyone help? Thanks!
