Loadmovie problem

eagle12 · Sep 11, 2008

I have a page that when you click on a button it calls

this.content.loadMovie("packages.swf");

when I run it the first time it loads the movie fine, and stops where it should. But when I run it subsequent times it constantly reloads the packages.swf movie. If I run packages.swf on its own, it runs perfectly fine.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

P.S. I am running as2.0 on CS3

you may want to try this

Code:

<noscript>
	<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0,0" width="810" height="156" id="header" align="middle">
	<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
	<param name="allowFullScreen" value="false" />
	<param name="movie" value="packages.swf" /><param name="menu" value="false" /><param name="quality" value="high" /><param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" />	<embed src="header.swf" menu="false" quality="high" bgcolor="#ffffff" width="810" height="156" name="header" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" allowFullScreen="false" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" />
	</object>
</noscript>

Sorry, maybe I am confused, but I am referring to loading movies within another flash movie.

on the button in my index.swf I have:

on(Release){
loadMovie("packages.swf","content");
}

This is pretty standard code, but still seems to be giving me problems. I am wondering if maybe it has to do some issues using as2.0 in cs3

change that to this

Code:

on(Release){
[b]unloadMovie[/b]("packages.swf","content");
}

I don't want to unload the movie, I want to load it.

I decided to re-write the whole project in AS3.0. Don't seem to have any problems now.
