really dumb question?

[leorabbit]

go here:
http://www.johncommon.com/presskit

When you click any link, the main page still is there.

I have this code for each button:
on (release) {
_root.gotoAndStop("blankFrame");
loadMovie("bio.swf",100);
}

I dont understand whats going on?
Theres just a simple "stop" command at the end of the bird animation..
help?
(using flash mx)

can you post your FLA? a couple of guesses, is that you did an "insert keyframe" instead of "insert blank keyframe"

leorabbit,

In order to load a movie, you have to have a movieclip to load it into. So create a blank movieclip (Ctrl-F8) and drag it onto the stage.

Now give this blank movieclip on your stage and instance name of something like holder

Next modify your code to look like:

code:

---

on (release) {

_root.gotoAndStop("blankFrame");

_root.holder.loadMovie("bio.swf",100);

}

---

Good luck
