code problems and button

[MJB3K]

Hi, i am having some problems with some coding and buttons. the buttons aren't passing on the variables to the coding...

/*********************************************/
in a movieclip called loadContent on 1st frame
/*********************************************/
_root.container.loadMovie(url2load);
trace("url2load var = "+url2load);
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
	trace("begging this.onEnterFrame sequence");
	//trace the percentage of the movie that has loaded
	percent = (_root.container.getBytesLoaded()/_root.container.getBytesTotal())*100;
	if (!isNan(percent)) {
		trace(percent+"% loaded");
		if (percent == 0) {
			percent_display = "";
		} else {
			_root.grFlash.grFlashLoad.text = Math.ceil(_root.container.getBytesLoaded()/1024)+"/"+Math.ceil(_root.container.getBytesTotal()/1024)+"kb";
		}
		if (percent>1) {
			this.reelmc._visible = true;
		}
		container.stop();
	} else {
		//      trace("0% loaded");
	}
	if (percent == 100) {
		delete this.onEnterFrame;
		_root.grFlash._visible = 0;
		_root.grFlash.enabled = false;
		loadMovie(url2load, 0);
	}
};
stop();

/*********************************************/
on a button
/*********************************************/
on (press) {
	_root.loadContent.url2load = "fred.swf";
}

for some reason it isn't passing the variable to the movieclip.

any ideas??

sorry if i haven't explained properly!!

The above is a somewhat modified version of my own different code...
You should have a look at the following...
