    F[8] External swf's not playing properly

    F[8]
    Hi folks, I've got this problem with a site I'm working on. I have this "container.swf" that loads other external swf's into it (such as navigation.swf & footer.swf). The problem is that when loaded, the externals don't play properly (by themselves they play fine) ie, the navigation doesn't play the rollOver state of the buttons. I'm guessing that this could possibly be a path problem, but I've tried that and still no success. Any ideas? Thanks.

    If you make a search about this issue, you'll find lots of solutions.
    Problem is your loaded swfs were not authored to be loaded, and you may have put lots of absolute paths and references to _root, which aren't true anymore.

    My best advice, appart from search, is to make all paths relative.
