I`m really sorry if this has been covered, but the search doesn`t come up with much when I type “Unload” in! :trout:

Ok, here`s my problem:

I have 9 frames on the main timeline - Each frame is a separate page for a website. eg:

Frame 1: Home  
Frame 2: News  
etc

In my second frame I have External SWFs being loaded in when you push 1 of 4 buttons. Now, I placed all of these on \_Level1 so that each time a button is pressed, it unloads the previous movie before the new one. Hassle free…or so I thought…

Now every time I move to another frame on the main timeline (ie any other frame apart from 2) the movie last loaded on that page stays over the other frames, as it`s on \_level1.

I`ve tried using an UnloadMovieNum () code (to unload all movies in _level1) on all the other frames, but I`m not having any luck. Perhaps I`m doing it wrong? I’ve only been using Flash a few months!

Any ideas?

Thanks very much for your time! :}
