I want to load an instance on my stage into an empty movie clip on my stage when it gets to a certain frame. The instance is called jpeg_2 and the movie clip is called empty_mc.

Is it possible to load a symbol from the library into an empty movie clip using an array?
I have a toggle button that used a text field originally and an array was used in the toggle function to switch the text in that field. The client requested to have icons instead of text so I created symbols in the library and tried to use attachMovie but didn't work.[code]...

It is on tracing variables. I have a attached main.fla, movieclip.fla, and movieclip.swf.
If you run main.fla from within flash you'll notice the actionscript on the first frame of main.fla is loading movieclip.swf into an empty movie clip called container on the first frame of main.fla. No problem.
In movieclip.swf I assigned three values to three different variables, a, b and c, on the first frame of moviclip.swf(See movieclip.fla) like this:
a = 1;
b="string";
c 1.234556;
Also, in the first frame of main.fla, there was actionscript as follows:
container.loadMovie("movieclip.swf");
trace (_root.container.a);
trace (_root.container.b);
trace (_root.container.c);
Now each of the above traces produced undefined results when I ran main.fla from within flash. And yes I had complied moviclip.swf. Why did I get undefined results? What concept am I not grasping?

I'm trying to load a flash game (hosted remotely) into an empty movie clip, and when I do the game appears but the buttons are disabled.Is there any way around this? I need to code it in as2 but the game was coded in as3, maybe that's causing issues? I've tried 2 slightly different ways so far but with the same affect:URL...(BTW, the game I'm using is just an example because the real one isn't finished yet)

I'm trying to get an external image in a movie clip symbol when the movie is opened and I'm having no joy. I can get it to work with a mouse over event...
on (rollOver) {
rootObject.activeMouse = true;
mcImage.loadMovie( "image1.jpg" );
}
However, I need it to load without pressing / rolling over anything.

I'm loading an external image into an empty actionscript movie clip (holder1) using MovieClipLoader(); on frame one of my movie and is invisible. Then when the movie plays, there is an empty movie clip symbol (image1_mc) that is placed manually on the stage within another movie clip symbol (flash_mc), and is also on a bottom layer of a mask layer which is animated. Is it possible to place "holder1" inside of "image1_mc" so that I can treat it as if it were an embedded image? In other words, have the image in "holder1" inside of the manually placed movie clip symbol "image1_mc" so that I can use it like a regular symbol on the stage?

(Whoops - ALMOST solved - one last issue below!) I've got two buttons, one shared movie clip. The two buttons each load two different movies. All I want to do is TOTALLY CLEAR OUT whatever movie is loaded from one button whenever I press the other to load its cargo into the movie clip.
This seems like it should be so easy to do, but there's always a remnant of the first movie left in this.How do I empty the whole thing while still keeping the shared movie clip (which the two buttons/movies share) in place?

I am importing a movie clip as a symbol from a SWF using Embed to a AS3 program and, after attaching the movie clip to the stage, the movie clip keeps repeating. Before you ask I have indeed creating a script layer and put a "stop()" on the last frame. In fact the swf containing the symbol works perfectly fine when executed on its own or in Flashdevelop (my choosen IDE). Its only when imported does the clip keep repeating.Here is the code:
Code:
package {
import flash.display.*;

I have an object (with it's own timeline) and on the last frame of that timeline I have the following code:
Code:
stop();
_root.createEmptyMovieClip("mainLoop_mc", 2000);
with (_root.mainLoop_mc){
[code]....
The problem is, when the "mainLoop.swf" file loads it obliterates my main UI SWF instead of attaching itself to a particular spot on the UI. So one SWF is replacing the other.

What I'd like to do is have a checkbox, that when it is checked it loads a movie into an empty movie clip, and when it is unchecked, it loads a different movie into the empty movie clip.Also if possible I'd like to find a way to output to a variable whether the same checkbox is checked or not. And send the info from the variable in an email.

trouble getting a movie to load in an empty movie clip. I am hoping I'm missing something simple.I have a button with the instance name SPS_btn on a layer I've called buttons.Below the button layer i've got a layer called movie clips that contains an emptymovie clip called mainStage_mc.I want to load a .swf into into mainStage_mc. both the buttons and their actions occur on the first frame.I have used this code but it not working.
on (release) {loadMovie (new002.swf, mainStage_mc);
I just get a blue area but the movie does not load. I can run the movie fun locally by clicking on new002.swf file.i also tried the behaviors panel, which produces this code but it also doesn't work:
on (release) {loadMovie ("new002.swf",mainStage_mc);
//load Movie Behavior
if(this.mainStage_mc == Number(this.mainStage_mc)){[code]........
for some reason it will load if i use loadMovieNum () but the registration point is in the top right corner and i don't want that.What's the best way to debug this?When i use test movie the output window dosen't show an error but something's wrong.how can I test if is a path problem? A problem with the loaded movie or a problem with something else? the movie new002.swf is 393KB. I tired making a smaller 2kbmovie using the code above and it wouldn't load either.

load a .swf into an empty movie clip. I've given the empty movie clip an instance name of "myContainer". This is the code i've got now on a button (which doesn't have an instance name), which doesn't work:
on (press) { myContainer.loadMovie("BVLibrary_Branding.swf");

I created a movie clip of a photo gallery that works fine until I test it and get to the frame that the movie clip is on. After doing so, the movie clip stays throughout any other page I click on. I can't get the removeMovieClip function to work.
Here's the code I have:
this.createEmptyMovieClip("container",1);
var imagesNumber:Number = 5;

Okay...
At the _root I have an instance using an empty clip named mainPageEmptyClip. Inside of that, are various other movies.
Now, at the _root there is a menu which, when clicked, should access one of the layers within the empty clip's content.
The problem here is that I can't discern what the target would be to actually access the clip. The action worked fine before I implemented the empty clip, but now it won't work any longer.
I've tried using the target tool built into FlashMX, but it doesn't list any of the instances withing mainPageEmptyClip - that's as far as it goes. I've tried entering in what would seem to be the path, based on the instance names of subordinate movies, but it does me no good - I'm continually given the error of Target Not Found.
These are the two options I've tried....
_root.mainPageEmptyClip.gotoAndPlay(351);
_root.mainPageEmptyClip.webLayer.gotoAndPlay(156);

I'm trying to load images into a row of images. Each image is a different width. Heres the code so far:
Code:
var xPos:Number = 0;
for (y=0; y<5; y++) {
var container:MovieClip = this.holder.createEmptyMovieClip("picholder"+y,y);
container.loadMovie("mypic.jpg");
container._x = xPos;
xPos += container._width;
}
The problem at the moment is that the container._width property is reading 0 so all the images are loading on top of each other. This is the same with "picholder"+y. If I set the xPos value to say 100 then it works fine. I'm guessing its something to do with the fact that the loadMovie happens after the var container is defined. Whats a way around this?
Also just while I'm posting whats the correct syntax for something like this:container.loadMovie("mypic" + (y) +".jpg");
