swf load movie help

[Diehard459]

I'm not clear on which method you're using. It sounds like you've imported an swf with the actual "import" function in the GUI. I don't think that's what you were intending.


I use loaded movies a lot. Look at the contact form on my site http://www.nsfilms.com
If that IS what you're looking to do then this is what you need to do.

CREATE and empty movieclip in your main movie. Name it loader1

In the button's action that triggers the loaded movie put this:
on(press){
loader1.loadMovie("nameoffile.swf");
}

i'm really new to this... but that is what i want it to do ... i tried what you said it didn't work.... i created an empty movie clip by ctrl f8. When the boxed opened named it loader 1 type: movie clip and then ok. (what do i do with the empty movie clip) when i dragged it on to the stage where i want the gallery to load i got a circle with an + in it. Was that right ??

Then the button i want to use is on my gallery page. i put in the action field
on(press){
loader1.loadMovie("myalbum.swf");
}


nothing happens when i click the button...
