Hello,
Im having trouble loading a clip through loadMovie and setting some properties of that newly loaded movie at the same time. For example I have an XML object loading data from a php page. The onLoad for that XML object loads a basic table movie, and tries to set the title and body fields of that movie. The problem is that I can load the movie, but I cannot set the properties of that movie until much later.
Below are the examples of the failing code. Thanks for the help, I just cant figure out how to load data into a loaded movie. Ive even tried to include the table movie in the library of the main movie, so theres no loading latency. Even preloading the movie and jut duplicating that preloaded movie. This is driving me insane!
