Re: FLASH: load movie problem

[John Croteau]

Hi Todd,


> but it is a single frame movie clip does that make a difference?

Yes.

Nothing in a movie clip is available until all of it is loaded.


Almost everytime you have problems that are corrected if the movie is

reloaded the problem is a call to a frame that does not exist yet. In a

single level movie this would be frames further down the timeline. With

Load movie on the web there is no way to know for sure how much of

another movie is loaded without checking (you could guess). It is the

same principle as to knowing which gif will load first, there is no

guarantee which will load first.

To solve the problem you neeed to use If frame is Loaded checks on

target frames and tell target the results back to the control movie to

then allow calling that frame(s).
