_roots and _levels in external swfs 1

[draigGoch]

Hello, i'm quite new to flash and starting to get to grips with the whole _root/_level thing.

But I have got a swf that needs to run as a standalone swf and as a loaded swf in a container.

I can't use _root coz it won't run in the container! Any ideas?

A computer always does what you tell it to, but rarely does what you want it to.....

Use something relative like _parent.

Hope it helps.

Wow JT that almost looked like you knew what you were doing!

Or look into _lockroot...
