Re: FLASH: load/unload-swf problem

[Thorsten Schmiedel]

Hi Jester,


thanks for your kind reply,


well...I guess have to rearrange everything a little bit after what you

suggested. So far I haven't used calls to load the new swf but made

something like this:


in the last frame of of each loaded swf (to be more precise on buttonclick

in each swf):


load swf x into target movieclip y  on _level0


where it is always the same target that I load the swf's into....

As it is necessary to use Movieclips instead of levels as loading target,

I guess I will have to think of some piece of code which will toggle between

two targets and at the same time define the depth of the specific target to

load the new swf into... hmm... I hope won't confuse myself too much with

this one.... if anyone has any other advise for me, I'd be glad to hear from

you.....


In any case, you helped me a lot, Jester,


regards, Thorsten
