actionscript calling in different swf's 1

[TaiChi56]

I have fifteen swf's that must run right after each one to give an effect of a machine gun shooting and putting holes in the canvas.

Would I just use loadMovie and unLoadMovie to have each one run and would I use that on the mainmovie frame?

**Also if I wanted to give you the FLA to look at, what is the best way to show it? Could I put it up on a test website I have so you can download it? And if so how?

I know that is a lot of questions, just trying to learn. Thank you.

put an empty clip on stage, give it an instance name and load the movies into that

loadmovie("1.swf",holder); //holder instance name

then in last frame of 1.swf

loadMovie("2.swf", holder);

and so on. no need for any unload actions as loading a new file into a clip automatically unloads the one already there.

yesy if you stick an fla on a server and post the url then people can download it.

Thank you. I will work on that. Yes, I must of had a brain fade. I knew that, about loading a file in the server. Thank you for reminding me.

Guess that code as posted won't work... As you'll soon discover!

You are right Oldnewbie. BillWatson sent me some other code. That works pretty good other than it looks glichy when it runs.

You're lucky he did that...
Meanwhile, others reading this thread and having the same problem, won't be able to get it to work because of the misleading and incomplete info given out by this instructor!
