My hover captions aren’t so much hovering, nor are they showing any captions when I load my .swf into the container (empty movie clip) with a load.movie script.

The hover caption box displays when I roll over the button, but it doesn’t move with the mouse, it doesn’t show any text and I am not sure if it is conflicting actionscript?

I know that the hover caption script is correct because when I “test movie” in flash, the captions work flawlessly. But when I load the movie into the container, it all goes downhill. Does it have to do with the \_root?

thanks.
