basically, i have a main "navigavtion"swf that has a designated area for external swfs to load into. Those external swfs im loading into have buttons within them that changes images as i click. now i am loading them in all on the same level right now into a "target", it loads fine, but those buttons on the external swfs do not work, now when i try to load the external swfs into the main swf on a different level, then the button works, but it either resizes the screen and my main navigation is overrided, or (tried different AS) it does not position itself into the target. what would be the most efficient solution for this problem? thanks in advance.
Flash AS help, loading external movies
This looks like a scope problem, meaning that your code is not finding the correct path to reference or control other objects.
You should paste your code here so that ppl can try and see what's happening.
Also, always remember to debug your flash movies using trace().
for instance, if your button has code:
... and nothing happens when you click it, you should change to:
... so if this traces "undefined" than you know that nothing is happening because the path to myCurtain movieclip is incorrect.

| Code: |
| on( release ){
_root.myCurtain.lift() ; } |
... and nothing happens when you click it, you should change to:
| Code: |
| on( release ){
trace( _root.myCurtain ); _root.myCurtain.lift() ; } |
... so if this traces "undefined" than you know that nothing is happening because the path to myCurtain movieclip is incorrect.
