Hi everyone,

I would like to ask a question about this piece of code…  
[AS]loadMovie(\_root.section, \_root.content);[/AS]  
I got it from a tutorial, it works perfectly fine, I understand that it loads the movie name contained within the “section” variable into the content mc… I would just like to know why something like this can’t be used, and why this doesnt make more sense:  
[AS]\_root.content.loadMovie(\_root.section);[/AS]
