    ok ... bear with me on this guys .. must make you blood curl .. but ok I'm a newbie .. and I am just missing a BIG piece of important info here

    Ok .. I made my main movie .. works fine ..

    During the movie I upload 2 other .swf I did in flash .. so they are in the same folder ...

    What I did was ..on a new layer in the main movie I put in a key frame and in action - Load movie
    url : C:\Julia\CS etc
    level: 4

    now it plays that on the trial .. but when I upload it to the server ..... it shouts at me lol with loads of errors

    and no-one can visualise the extra movies only the main one

    I read the tutorials ... and there was something about root that I have to go over again ...

    I've really missed the point right ???
    Helpppp

    I also tried the Tutorial Dynamically Adding a movie Clip

    Attach Movie Method...

    TyperCS.swf.attachMovie("Trial1","Trial2",4);

    but I do not see the movie preview

    TY for answering ...

    I had tried that at the beginning ... but i eliminated everything I had redone and put that back in ...

    but it just does not appear in the final movie on line --

    the final .swf movie is in a simple dreamweaver page ..

    uffff ... I had also tried ...
    create empty movie field _root etc
    then
    load movie ... _root etc

    it all works on the trial but not when I upload it on the web

    Could I link you so you can see what I'm getting at

    thanks

    I know nothing of Dreamweaver! Never used it!
    Can you post a direct link to your .swfs?

    Thanks for being so patient .... I've checked dreamweaver and it's nothing to do with that I discovered because even if I upload the .swf directly to the server it doesn't work ... so

    1. ok the main web page is this:

    http://digilander.libero.it/csintern...FlashIntro.htm

    2. the .swf file of the main movie is this:

    http://digilander.libero.it/csintern...FinalCSBIS.swf

    3.the swf files I uploaded into the FinalCSBIS files are

    http://digilander.libero.it/csintern...l1/TyperCS.swf
    http://digilander.libero.it/csintern.../Redsmovie.swf


    This is my very first attempt so don't be shocked at how bad it all is lol

    I just don't know what I'm doing wrong ... I thought it was because it was Flashtyper .. but it is not loading the normal swf I made of the red fotos

    tyyy

    You'd have to add a preloader(s) if not but on your main movie, so that maybe when it plays, it will allow sufficient time to download the other movies in the background, while playing your first part.

    Being on a cable connection, I didn't have that problem either.
