i have 2 combo boxs that are pulling in xml to populate their values and labels....

these work fine when i have them in their own .swf...

they work fine when i load that .swf into my container movie...

however, when another container movie calls my container .swf which inheriently loads the .swf containing these combo boxs.....the combo boxs don't work at all..?!? (i know that was a bit confusing)


is there something i don't know about the behavior of the combo boxs being layered above and/or below other .swf's? I can see that the xml data got loaded into them...but they wont' "drop down" or....when they do "drop down" the drop down section isn't attached to the combo box..


PLEASE HELP ME!

It sounds as if I was having the same problem, try the macromedia live docs...
