Cache and .swf file issue

[skalie]

**********//////// As usual 10 minutes after posting a question on the forum the I find the answer..........

"loadMovieNum" instead of "loadMovie" seems to work, when using the variable.

Don't no why yet, so any comments appreciated.////////************






I am building an image intensive website, to cut download time I have split the movie, and am using the "loadmovie" function to access the seperate sections of the site.

The problem I am having is that when I upload the movie to the server the .swf files are getting cached, I have a suspicion that that may even be happening on the server. This is preventing me from updating the various sections of the movie.

To prevent the caching I'm trying to place a random variable on in this manner.....

on(release){
rn = Math.round(Math.random()*1000000);

loadMovie("new_movie.swf?="+rn,0); // doesn't work

//loadMovie("new_movie.swf?=3",0); // works (not random though)
}

Am I going about solving this problem the right way? and if so, can anyone tell me where my code is faulty?
