Component

[Northware]

Hi heres what happen I decide to edit a template...using a component that consists of a thumbnail slider and Display for the images....this is 2.swf...

This is loaded into a index.swf through a holder that works with 1.swf but not work with other *.swf I dont know why but in the forum where I get the template they suggeted me to aask for help in AS!! so here I am...what Im trying to do is to load a different swf into a holder...the weird thing is that the 1.swf works but the rest wont and theres no change in the code....

If anyone can help me please I could send the files im not uploadign them because of the file size 6 MB

THX

Hey, what do you mean "there's no change in the code"? If you want to load 2.swf instead of 1.swf you'll have to change the code... try just posting the part of the code that loads the swf movie into the placeholder mc and we can see how it's being loaded . . .

Also, if this project is for a website, you may want to look into your file size and figure out why it's so big. That big of a file won't load online (or it'll take quite awhile...)

Slider();
function Slider() {
if (showC == 0) {
Holder.Movies._x = Holder.Movies._x+((tv-Holder.Movies._x)/6);
Holder.Shade._x = Holder.Shade._x+((tv-Holder.Shade._x)/4);
}
}
function contentChange() {
if (contentReady == 1) {
for (i=1; i<=nMenus; i++) {
if (i == cMenu) {
_root.StoredActions.Holder.Movies.Holder2["CMovie"+i]._x = 0;
