Hey all,

I am working on several Flash site templates. Each template consists of one main SWF file that calls in other SWFs with the following code:

on (release) {
unloadMovie(_root.content);
loadMovie("home.swf",_root.content);
}

This code is on each button in the main SWF. "Content" is the movie clip that each external SWF file replaces.

Now, my problem is this:
I want to be able to load a text file into my external SWFs. That works fine when I test each external SWF. However, when I test the main SWF that calls in the external SWFs, the text doesn't show up.

Can anyone help??? ;) PLEEAASE let me know if you know what to do!! :P

Thank you so much.

Michael Swengel

maybe there is something wrong with the targeting of the text files..
have you already tried to use the debugger?
