This has got be a simple easy question!

Movieclip1 loads Movieclip2 into a blank movieclip on movieclip1's stage. I would like to load movieclip2 but have it start a specific frame instead of at the beginning of the clip. How do I do this. I've searched the forums but did not find the answer to my question.

Here's my code:

on (release) {
main.attachMovie("interface1", "content1", 0);
}

Thanks in advance!

then you just use:
main.interface1.gotoAndStop(x);
where x is a frame number...

Hi Jesse,

I've added your code as below but it's still playing the MC from the beginning. Is their something else I need to do?

on (release) {
main.attachMovie("interface1", "content1", 0)
;main.interface1.gotoAndStop(10);
}

Thanks again!

how about u put a : stop (); on the 1st frame of your loaded MC and on the button use the if and _framesloaded to check wether all the frames are loaded. The loaded MC starts playing the ms it's loaded, hence the stop(); on the 1st frame. The frame checker is handy when u adress a frame that's not loaded yet. Use Jesse's code on the button under the if statement.
