Make sure everything is actually loaded before using it. On your harddrive it will work, but not on the internet. You'll have to use
preloaders and do some checking with if() statements to varify everything is actually loaded before continuing your movie.

Like, in your textfile, you could add a variable at the end:

&varLoaded=1

then in flash after loading the textfile, use:

if (varLoaded==1) {
//put continue movie action here
}else{
//go back to previous keyframe and check again
}

hth,
