A possibility, but I don't think so, cuz paths are still relative aren't

they? I'll have to test that I guess.  But, I don't refer to that movie

clip with any tell targets from outside of it.  In other words...I load the

clip api_demo.swf into the target holder1 in api_menu.swf.  The api_menu

does no tell targets for the mc holder1  There are tell targets within

api_demo.swf to embedde mc's.  It is self contained. There are tell targets

from within it.  If the path does change like that, it kind of defeats the

reusability of symbols/movie clips using load movide doesn't it?

Anyway...thanks,


Jason
