Hi everyone,

Firstly, I see there are plenty of issues loading external SWF’s, but I haven’t seen any quite like this one.

I am trying to load this SWF:  
[http://www.corporatemedicare.com/jcr/clinkcard/m/contact.swf](http://www.corporatemedicare.com/jcr/clinkcard/m/contact.swf)

into an empty movie clip called container in the main movie  
[http://www.corporatemedicare.com/jcr/clinkcard/m/menu\_new3.swf](http://www.corporatemedicare.com/jcr/clinkcard/m/menu_new3.swf)

As you can see, when played alone the contact form works fine, but when it is played in the container, it appears to work fine but in face, both the submit button and combo box appear not to respond?

Does anyone have any ideas, its driving me round the bend!

Thanks  
Jamie
