I use this code in mc1:

```auto
elegido = "elegido";
reproductor=getversion();
loadMovie("mc2.swf","ancla");

```

Everything goes OK.

In mc2 I use this code:

```auto
elegido = _root.elegido;
reproductor = _root.reproductor

```

I have 2 dynamic text fields with var atributte set to elegido and reproductor.

When I test mc1 in my computer everyting is ok. mc1 loads into “ancla” mc2. Then mc2 reads the two vars elegido and reproductor from \_root and aplies the values to the textfields.

The problem is when I upload this to a server. Only var nº1 is readed. mc2 only gets the value of elegido and not the value of reproductor.

Any idea ?

Thanks in advance.
