comparing loadmovie vs loadmovienum

[testedge]

Should these be the same?


loadmovienum("tween.swf",1);

and

_level1.loadMovie ("tween.swf");


I *thought* they ought to be but in my testing I got otherwise.

(_level0==_root is _a_ movie is it not? And level1 too??)

My reason for all this is as follows:

I thought I'd load tween.swf into level 1. It plays once. Back to frame 1 which is empty and has stop().

Therefore, _level0 is shown.

Anyways, can some expert set me straight?

Muchas appreciatus.

Is it useful to do a loadmovienum("mymovie.swf",1) to load a movie into a template sitting in root?



Next: Can I interact with mymovie.swf from (a button in) _root? How?

Finally: Is loadmovienum more useful than loadmovie? Because: it does not destroy what it loads into.

Sorry for the hodgepodge follow-up question - I wrote a better one but when I pressed submit, it was vanished.
