Ok, I don't get it. I have a movie (_level0) that loads a movie, which then - in turn - loads another movie. The top-level movie starts with the folllowing code _level0.hlpLvl = this; When I trace the value of "hlpLvl" from _level0, I get "_levl0.placer.placer", as expected.
Now, on to the fun - I use the line _level0.placer.placer.gotoAndPlay("hint"); in my code (on _level0) and it works perfectly. However, the line [hlpLvl]gotoAndPlay("hint"); sends my .swf off into the nether regions. Remember, by this point the variable hlpLvl contains the value "_level0.placer.placer". I have been staring at this project way too long by this point, and this is about all I need to finish - got like 9 movies that need to set the hlpLvl variable to enable context-sensitive help, and now I can't fingure out why it won't run correctly.
Anybody have any ideas at all? Please?
