[CS3]Call Function Bug

[dkmobi]

Hi all,

I've got a problem in my Actionscript-Code(2.0).

I've got 2 layers. One contains a movieclip, which contains a function.

The other one contains a AS-Code which calls this function.

If I use this code the function is called correctly.

function loadXML(loaded){
	if (loaded){
		_root.test_mc.test_function("hello");
	}
	else{
		trace("file not loaded!");
	}
}
xmlData = new XML();
xmlData.ignoreWhite = true;
xmlData.onLoad = loadXML;
xmlData.load("test.xml");

but if I delete the XML-part the function wouldn't be called.

_root.test_mc.test_function("hello");

Does anyone have an answer?

This may be nothing, but try moving your function from your mc to adding it just below all your xmlData info. It's a good rule of thumb to keep all the code together, and it's a good habit to get into especially if you're planning on moving to AS3.
