[color=black][font=Arial] [/font][/color]

[color=black][font=Arial]1. Is there any way to have a main movie load an external movie (swf) and goto a specified frame with in that movie? Without putting the redirecting code in the first few frames of the movie that is being loaded.[/font][/color]

[color=black][font=Arial] [/font][/color]

[color=black][font=Arial]I have a rather large movie that needs to be loaded at different times to display different pages, or frames. Actually 8 different pages.[/font][/color]

[color=black][font=Arial] [/font][/color]

[color=black][font=Arial]2. Using \_path.loadMovie() to load a external swf into a MC. is there any way to show the status of the bytes loaded of the loading swf?[/font][/color]
