RE: FLASH: set variable across levels

[Sohrab Pirayesh]

Hey everyone,


I have an swf file. Inside this swf file i have a mc with the instance name

"music", inside that i set a variable. It reads as follows


Set Variable:"goNow" = "yes"


now, i take this swf file and i load it into level 4 of my main time line.


now on the main timeline i want to check and see if "gonow" equals "yes", if

it does, then the movie should go to and play the label "start".

Here is the code for that:


If("_level4/music:gonow" eq "yes")

	go to and play (start)

End If



Something is VERY wrong. I am reletively new at loading movies, and even

newer to setting variables, especially across frames. I have got everything

else working except this part. I have scraped together this much with the

help of Greg Caines and some tech notes on macromedias site. But still no

luck.

If anyone could help my hopeless cause, it would be much appreciated.


thanx in advance
