is there a way i can switch the depth of an as2 and as3 website ?

what i`m trying is this...i have an outer as3 file that loads an as2 swf. now somwhere down the chain in the as2 file i load another as3 file by sending a message to the top movie (as3). no i want a as2 movie to load again and sit above the as3 one..how can i do it ?

So that's an AS2 file inside an AS3 file inside AS2 file inside and AS3 file :confused:

I have no idea what you're doing but there must be an easier way. Adobe have included the ability to use LC to communicate between the two VMs to provide backward compatibility - but it's hardly one of the players strengths. As you already know from your other posts it introduces quite a bit of extra complexity and some unwanted "features" along the way. Personally I would try to find a way to simplify your technical architecture, migration strategy or what ever it is.

Have I misunderstood - that's not even possible is it?

haha , no i realized it cannot be done , cause i wanted to have a flash9 swf and load a flash8 swf , then load another swf9 using top one , and then push it somewhere between the flash 8 movies ..but thats not possible...

but thanks anyway :)
