communicating between 2 loaded movies.

[Johnnyyakuza]

ok so i've got my main swf, into which i load most of the content via loadmov.

but in my main movie i have 2 sections. a text section, and a photo section. the text and photo sections are both in seperate swfs and load in on a button press.

in the text swf there is are some buttons which swaps between different areas of text.

however i realised i would also like the photos to change corresponding to the text, but they are in a seperate external swf.

so i'm unsure how i would find the path of the other swfs from within an external swf.

or should i include the code for the buttons in the Main swf ?

Simple target the instance name of the container clip that the other swf is in. Add _level0.

on(release){
_level0.other_container_mc.gotoAndStop(X);
// text code
}
