Re: FLASH: Load Movie - Frame # or (N)

[Dave Hollinden]

I've done this kind of thing before where I  needed to return to a Flash

movie at a particular page, and I did it with a loadMovie and a TellTarget

to a specific frame, and it worked great for me.  Since I was loading the

movie from cache there was no need to worry about the particular frame

being loaded or not.
