    LoadMovie only loading half of linked SWF

    I have a movie; inside a frame of the movie is a load movie command that loads an external SWF into a target _mc when the frame is played. This all works fine.

    Then inside the loaded _mc is another frame with a similar loadmovie command in a frame which plays when that frame is reached. This particular SWF is an MP3 player that gather it's info from an XML playlist. However when the frame is reached the SWF 'shell' plays but the XML data is ignored and no MP3's or the playlist work.

    The MP3 player SWF works fine on it's own, but seems to ignore the XML data when loaded into another SWF, bearing in mind the heirachy as stated above.

    Anyone have any ideas?

    I found the problem...

    The XML document had an incorrect path to the media files and so couldn't load anything into the associated movie clip, even though it found the XML file itself.

    Easy mistake to make! One of many this week.
