FLASH: How To Refer to Loaded Movies

[Scott Rossi]

Let's say you have a movie running that loads an alternate movie (clip1.swf)

without replacing itself.  How do you refer to the additionally loaded

movies in actions, for targeting and such?  Do you use the file name

(clip1.swf), movie name (clip1) or path name (myclips/audio/clip1.swf)?


We have a movie that is supposed to act as a channel selector that swaps

various audio-only movies.  We're having a hard time writing a test action

to determine when the audio-clip movie has finished loading.  Should the

test go in the audio movie itself, or can it go in the master movie?


Thanks for any suggestions.


Regards,


Scott
