hello, not sure if i can do this, right ill try my best to explain.

i have a main.swf and into this file i load navigation.swf and content.swf, now within content i have a mc named (contentwindow) which is dragable, and within the (contentwindow) mc i have another mc named (content).


now here's the part im stuck on, im tring to add a button to the navigation.swf that tells it to load another swf into contents.swf>contentswindow>content.


can this be done.

thanks in advance

I assume you've used instancenames, thats the first thing you need to to if not already done.

you can then address it by
_root.navigation.contentwindow.content

and then add your propertie or action or anything.
if you don't have a clue what I'm talking about check this tutorial out:

just happened to pass by for the 36th time today:)
and finally a question I could answer :)

I'm not the big pro either, but if you want to make progress, I'd take some extra time to check this subject out, it'll prove to be essential :)
