    here's the code for the button that works:


    on (release) {
    if (_level0.current_selection == "01 Dumpweed") {
    stop();
    } else {
    _level0.containerMC.loader.loadMovie("01 Dumpweed.swf","level10");
    _level0.preloader.gotoAndStop(2);
    _level0.current_selection = "01 Dumpweed";
    }
    }

    all i did was a add a "loader" mc and then added that into the button code, ok i will let you work your majic

    Joe, maybe you should just tell someone what you want and have them make it for you. Then you just review what they did. I had plenty of times where people have coded things for me and I end up learning alot more because of it. Everything they do seems so much simpler aswell.

    Hope someone can help ya.

    actually Adam14 is doing a rather good job, so i have 2 more things that i was hoping would be easy for you,

    1. could you check out my loadbar and see if it would work on the net
    2. would it be possible for fireworks buttons to stay in the down state until another button is clicked, like they do in fireworks.

    BTW i did a little remodeling in my player so the equalizer would slide down with the player so it is inside the "player" layer, i named the player "containerMC" so it wouldn't fuc# up the coding. the loading bar is still in the same place so could you check it out.

    PS: Adam14 is the man

    Joe

    PPS: don't forget to DL the attach its the updated file

    this line right here, is exactly what I was talking a bout a few posts back:

    _level0.containerMC.loader.loadMovie("01 Dumpweed.swf","level10");

    loadMovie is used to load into a container clip, and yet you are targetting a _level, also...I don't see "containerMC" on the stage, or "loader" inside it...I have no idea how this is supposed to work...I'm lost, like I have been from the moment I saw your files....are you loading on a level?...does the equalizer need you to?...are you loading into a container?....also, the last file I sent you, you did absolutely nothing with it....the preloader I put in there was gone in this new file you uploaded??

    ok this is why you definately need AIM. I looked at the preloader you had and changed the stuff in mine ot match yours, the "containerMC" is the whole panel that slides down, so i am gonna mess around with some stuff and see if i can figure anything out about the preloader, BTW did you know how to change fireworks buttons so that when you click them they stay down until you click another button?
