Call a function

[slen]

Hello:

I am new to flash as well as actionscript. I have a question about function/method.

I have 2 movieclip, A and B. I would like to call a function from A to B. Can I do that? I tried several time. My code complaint or function was not being called. I don't know how I call a function in actionscript. I am very confused with this. Can anyone help? Please give me some direction

Thanks

if the functions are inside the movie clips, you need to call them by giving the full path to the movie clip instance.
for example _root.clipA.functionA(); or _parent.clipA.functionA();

Thanks for your reply.

I tried your method, but it doesn't work

This is how I call a function ... in ClipA
_root.image_mc.loadingPicture(myname);

This is how the function written in another image_mc
function loadingPicture(myname) {
trace(Myname);
image_scroll.contentPath = Myname;
}

Note: image_scroll is a scrollPane component in the image_mc

Please help me ...

Any suggestion

Did you name the instances of the movie clips with unique names?
