Re: [flasher] swf communication

[DRMRLPLS]

I'm not exactly sure what you mean by importing an external file.  What you 

need to do is load that movie into another level using the loadMovie command. 

 Once you have your buttons in another level you can then load other movies 

into other levels.  You don't want to replace _level0, since that will cause 

all levels to be wiped clean and all you will be left with is the new loaded 

movie.  Once your levels are loaded they can be communicated with by 

prefacing any command with its level name as: _level3.gotoAndStop(endOfGame);


If you have no experience using levels...  start slow and be patient.  Hope 

this helps.

 successfully loaded external swf files into the main_movie. Here is my

 problem, now that I have imported an external file how do I get the files to

 communicate between each other. Basically in the external file I have a

 series of buttons that I want to essentially load and unload other movies in

 main_movie, would I solve this using variables? I know that you guys and

 gals can help me out and I would much appreciate it.

 Thanks and have a good day,
