Ok i am having a problem with my movie... when i test it using test movie it
is fine but when i preview in HTML or run the SWF on it own i am having a
problem... and i spotted the items i am having a problem with but problem is i
dont know why.

i am loading a movie dynamically in my main movie using load movie

loadMovie("menu.swf",_root.i_dress2.i_content);

and in the actual movie menu.SWF i am loading a text dynamically using
loadvariable... but i am actually loading it into the movie that has already
been loaded into my main movie... maybe it i will make sense when you see my
line of script that is in the menu.sef movie....

loadVariables("menu.txt",_root.i_dress2.i_content.arg.maskedText.scrollpage);

so i guess it is like i am loadingthe txt into the text file after it is
loaded into the main movei so that is why it is referring ot the text field
that way...

anyway it works fine when i go thorugh test movie but when i preview in HTML
the text doenst come out...

am i doing this thewrong way.? is there something i am missing?

Thanks...any help will be appreciated!!

You may be hitting a Flash 8 security issue that you cannot load external
data using file:////path_to_your_movie/youmoviehtml in a web browser. You
may need to use http://thedomain.com/yourmovie.html.
