unloadMovie()

[xzyfer]

i have a button that loads 3 buttons into a movie clip "abc"..
and that load which ever of teh three options selected into "abc1" movieclip..
but its possible that you may selected a different option from teh first menu and then the menu would kload into "def"..
so i was wondering how to i user unloadMovie to clear a target MC no matter wats loaded into it instead of physically unloading each possible movie from each possible MC each time a differnt one is clicked..
i tried
_root.abc.unloadMovie("abc");
but that just unloads the rootmovie...
and i tried..
abc.unloadMovie("abc");
that just dose nuthing..
so is this possible?

Hi xzypher, your post is hard to understand im not sure whether its the typos or your english. If I understand correctly I believe you are not using the unload movie function correctly. IF abc is the target clip ie the clip where you load stuff into to just use



abc.unloadMovie()


And this will unload all clips within the abc clip which have been loaded previously via the loadMovie() function.
