going from one swf to another

[Donleavy1]

Hello there

In a SWF, I am loading another SWF using

code:

---

 loadMovie ("denLette1.swf", 100); 

---

How can I go back from the second SWF to the first SWF ? If I use gotoAndStop (1) in the second SWF this, naturally, refers to the timeline in the second SWF...

If the movie that ran that command is the main movie (and not another movie loaded into a level), you can use:

code:

---

_level0.gotoAndStop(1);

---

Incidentally, the command to load a movie into a level should be:

code:

---

loadMovieNum("denLette1.swf", 100);

---

Where 100 is the number of the level.

loadMovie is generally used to load an swf into a movie clip.

code:

---

loadMovie("denLette1.swf", "myClipInstanceName");

thanks for the reply!

I can see on the bandwidth profiler, that the _level0.gotoAndStop(1); command works, but the second SWF still stays on top of everything.

Should I unload that in some way?

You can unload a level two ways. If you load something new into that same level, it will unload what was already there.

To just unload a level use:

code:

---

unloadMovieNum(100);

Thank you so much!
It works like a charm.
