[knglake]

Hi all,

struggling with as2 code, basically i have a interactive map and when the user clicks a location i want it to play a swf file and go to a defined page.

currently i am using this code

on (release){ // on release of mouse click
loadMovie("movie2.swf","../empty");
var roomArray:Array= ["Room 017"]; // stores in array for rm004 page

gotoAndStop(3); // goes to room 017 page

}

nothing seems to happen when i click the location.

Can anyone help me out with this ps im using as2



Thanks.

loadMovie("movie2.swf","../empty");

Wrong. Try:

loadMovie("movie2.swf","_parent.empty");

assuming the instance 'empty' is on this code's _parent timeline.

It's unclear why you are creating a new array with 1 item only.

on (release){ // on release of mouse click
loadMovie("movie2.swf",2);
var roomArray:Array= ["Room 017"]; // stores in array for rm004 page

gotoAndStop(3); // goes to room 017 page
}

If you load into a level use loadMovieNum.

And if there's repetition, it means you have a loop somewhere.
