VERY quick question (honestly)

[mindfriction]

Hi there,

If a variable is declared in a movie as global (_global). Is this variable available to a movie which loads this movie via LoadMovie() ?

i.e. parentMovie loads childMovie.swf

Yeah, but I tried that before and for some reason it kept resetting my variable.

Instead of getting all upset about it, I just put the variable in the main timeline and called it as _root.variableName

It works with loaded movies that way as well.


I don't know if I was doing something wrong with _global, or if it is a bug, I didn't mess with it too much because I just wanted to get the script done with....lol.

LOL.. yeah Im at the same stage where i just want to get things working. I figured i could post this question before I started breaking things, ..Oh Well :)
