Re: FLASH: Load unload movies via a button

[Karin Christensen]

Hi Natalie,

This is a bit confusing.  Are you using movie clips or swfs? When you

say have the movie clips go to a park frame then I wonder what you are

doing.  If you have a swf loaded into a level and if you load another

swf into that same level it will replace the one that is there.  If

you are using load into target then it is a bit more complex to load

different movies.  If you have movie clips playing then you do need to

tell target each one to stop if you start another.  I note that in

your scripting you do not have a level stated so I am guessing you are

loading into target by replacing a movie clip. Then you are going to

have to unload any swfs that may be playing in that location.

More info is needed.
