Ok, first post here, so let me know if this is in the wrong section.

What I'm trying to do is take a 550x400 movie I did for the web, and set it up for my IPAQ.

What I did was make a new movie, that loads the other SWF into a movie clip that is re-sized and rotated to fit on my PPC. The only problem I have is that I have "Pause" buttons in there that pause the "_root" of the movie. How should I change those so that they will work when the movie is playing on it's own, and when it's playing in the IPAQ movie.

Thanks for any information.

Let me know if I left anything out!

use '_parent', or 'this'.
check out the pathing tutorials in the tutorial section.
