Hi all,

have a small path problem on this following code

```auto

loadMovie("1.jpg", ["tn"+1]);
trace(["tn"+1]._x);

```

on the 1st link, the loadmovie works, but on the second line, i have problem tracing the .\_x value.

however if i change the 2nd line coding to  
trace(\_root[“tn”+1].\_x);

it will work.

But then, this .swf i’m working on will be part of a bigger project (one sub page, need to be loading on a main.swf) therefore using \_root is not a option.

Any suggestion pls?
