createEmptyMovieClip 1

[mmmbob]

Hi,
I'm trying to create a button dynamically. I'm trying to use a createEmptyMovieClip method to create a "movie clip" and then giving it an onRelease event handler. But this doesn't seem to work.
But when i make a movie, add it to the library and then attach it through attachMovie method, then the onRelease method seems to work.
Any ideas on why i can't do this?
Also, when i create a movie using createEmptyMovieClip and hten loadMovie(jpg) it loads correctly. But when I createEmptyMovieClip and hten specify it's width and hten try the loadMovie method, it doesn't seem to load it....
Any help in either of these issues will be great.
Thanks,
