Hey all, I'm kind of new and pretty stuck...I created a movie in my library, and i want to load it using actionscript. is loadMovie(); just for external SWF files?! if it is, what command do i use??
Thanks,
Kyle

haha... what's up dude...
make sure you're using linkage... when you're looking at the movie properties, select linkage, and then give it a name..
... you can also use attachMovie();

im tryin to use the attatchMovie() command... i checked the linkage, exported for actionscript with identifier main...
on a button press i want it to load the movie so i do this:
on(release) {
attatchmovie("main");
}
right???
i HAVE to be retarded this week....
