I am working with the transitions tutorial: http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/transitions.htm
Here is a link to the modified example im working on.

If you are familiar with this tutorial you will see this is familiar. Main movie checks to see if the specific section is at “midframe” if its not it waits and does nothing, then once you have transitioned to midframe and stopped it, click on the next section will then transition out and load the next movie. I am tring to do a little variation of it.
ok we have mainmovie2004.swf which has 4 buttons. Each button, section1, section2, section3, and section4 all load specific movies to “container” on the main timeline. Section1 button loads section1.swf, Section2 button loads section2.swf…etc. Well I have placed another set of buttons in each section (just section1 and 2 for example sake). Each button loads a specific movie into container_small (yeah I know it doesnt follow camelCode but thats the least of my concerns). I have been messing around with the code and I am able to get Section1 to load, then when I click on the first pink button in section1 it loads section1.1 which is (section1_1.swf). When I click on the next button it just reloads the same section no matter what. The other sections work because when you load section1 and click on any pink button the corresponding swf loads just doesnt ever transition out. The tree would like like this: {mainmovie2004.swf[section1.swf(section1_1.swf)]}.
I think the problem is the last frame of each sub section has an action that will load the next section. I need to get the path correct.
_root.container_small.loadMovie(_root.currMovie+".swf")
Now when I am click inside section1.swf its tring to load the next subsection into the container in section1.swf which is container_small, which is neither in the “_root.” or “this.”.
What would be the proper pathing?
Forgive me for my ignorance, I’m still learnin me some actionscripting :):rd:
Thanks
