This seems so simple but its eluding me:

I’m trying, without success, to load an external swf from a button on lvl 10 (not the main timeline) into a movie clip on the main timeline. I’m using the basic loadMovie command but I cant get it to load into a specified target on a different timeline. I can put a level in and it works just fine but does not help because the whole document itself is actually being loaded into another document. I have to be able to load it into a specified target. I know this seems simple but cant solve. I’ve attached the file. Basically I just want to be able to click on a picture and have an enlarged version fade up into the square on the right. Plain and simple. If anyone can help it would be greatly appriciated.

Thanx
