Hi Nathalie,

You can't tell target something that doesn't exist on the timeline yet, so

really you can't load it and tell target it all in one action (it might

work, if the loaded movie or mc is small, in test movie, but then stop

working in a baffling fashion when you put it on the web :) You can load

different movies depending on the button pressed without a problem although

they will require loading time just as your main movie does. I'm not sure

exactly how you're using the tell target, so can't give more specific help.


hth,

Laura
