bug in MX or ????

this.createEmptyMovieClip("empty",1);
var th = this["empty"];
th.createEmptyMovieClip("temp",1);
th.custom = function () {trace("custom_method");}
th.onData = function () {trace("pic1.swf_ is loaded");}
th.loadMovie("pic3.swf");

/* when loading external movie(swf,jpg) in a target clip all
the methods of the targeted clip (custom and build-in) disappear after the image is fully loaded but they are present durring loading time.*/

Any of the board crew members to answer the question?

I'm not really sure but I think this is because the loaded MC totally replaces a targeted MC. So all functions, objects, variables or other data contained in there will be lost.
