Hi,  
I’m a beginner in Flash and ActionScripting. Currently I’m using Flash 8 and AS2. I have build a website in flash. The entire site is in one single swf. It consists music, videos, pictures and buttons. Hence to load this swf i’m using a loader which will be running in a seperate swf. My real problem is that when the loader works fine but when the main swf starts the buttons music and i suppose the video clips dont work. All I see are the elements defined on the main timeline. At the same time the loader also remains. I have tried to work my way out but have not been successful. Can anyone help find a solution to it

Thanks in advance
