flash actionscript: you can use the same function, but you'll have to call the function from
the button within "movie2", right, so you'll have to call it like that:

on (release) {
_root.loadSWF2();
}

and you should probably change the function in your main timeline to
loadSWF1() { _root.holder.loadMovie('movie1.swf'); }

i.e. add _root to the path so that all paths are absolute and stay right.

okay, i've got a movie clip called 'holder' nested inside a swf, and i'm using
a function to load a movie clip called 'movie1' into 'holder'. i.e. function
loadSWF1() { holder.loadMovie('movie1.swf'); but now i want to put a button
in movie1.swf that loads another movie into 'holder'. would i use the same
function? i.e. function loadSWF2() { holder.loadMovie('movie2.swf');? does
that make sense? cheers, macron
