Problem playing a flash slideshow when loaded on top of another movie.
I have a main movie. I can open another movie automatically (no button) on top of a particular scene by using loadmovie or this code...
this.createEmptyMovieClip("new_mc", 1);
loadMovie("emailForm2.swf", "new_mc");
new_mc._x = -110;
new_mc._y = -130;
OK. When I load a slideshow (even a new slideshow created from flash's template files) on top of my movie or (even a new blank movie), the slideshow controls (play, forward, back, etc) do not work.
In my movie, when I press play, the entire MAIN movie reloads (sporadically) and the audio file of my main movie begins playing out of sync. The slideshow's next button is grayed out. The first jpeg image in the slideshow presents itself but of course you can't move to the second image.
Any ideas why this happening?
If I insert the slideshow into an html file and call it via javascript, it works fine. But of course this is ugly. So, something is messing up my slideshow when it loads on top of my main movie.
Your intellectual pursuit in solving this matter would be appreciated.
