RE: [flasher] Making web site want to use MC's - need a bit of help please

[Anna Lawrinenko]

Try putting a blank keyframe in the ending keyframe where you want the

first one to disappear, and the next one to appear.  Without that, you can

load all the mc's you want, and the first one with remain.  Same goes me

the load movie action.  You have to remember to unload your movies, unless

you load it into the same level as the previous, then in that case, it

replaces the prior movie.


HTH....
