Alert Component + Multi Level Flash App 1

[HomeAway]

Hi Experts,

Im having a nightmare with trying to display an alert window in my flash movie. It works if the parent of the alert is the same movie. However as soon as i call that same swf from a different swf using the loadMovie method i can no longer see the alert window.

As you can see this is how i call the actionscript.
if i trace(this) in the "child" swf [one that contain the alert] is get _level0.mc_clip.content , where mc_clip is the movie clip symbol i use.

mx.managers.PopUpManager.createPopUp(_root0,mx.containers.Window,true, {contentPath:"login", closeButton:true, title:" vpfm.Net Status", _x:x, _y:y});

Any ideas ?

Are both movies published for Flash player 7 and Actionscript 2?

pixl8r,

they certainly are.

Add the Alert component to the library of the parent movie (drag to stage and delete) and see if it works then.

Also you might try changing _root0 to this.
