Heya guys! Just joined and already got a question about Transition tut  
[http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/transitions.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/transitions.htm)

Basically Ive got this file (headware) and its a filw with transitions in it… just like in tha tutorial. When I test it on its own it works fine and loads up external swf as intended.  
However when i load that file (headware) into another file (index) it messes up.  
This is what happens:  
Under Products click on Headware, and then click on Visors after the animation ends. It plays the same file as before. I.e. doesnt load up the swf i asked for.

can i look at your fla. I think you just made a simple error because the pathing issue seem to be fine. Make sure you double check your fla carefully. Try changing the fla to \_parent instead of \_root.
