drag and drop levels

[janet24]

I have a drag and drop flash file that works fine. It contains questions and answers. You drag the correct answer in the correct place and it sticks.

When I bring the same movie into a level of another movie it will drag but won't stop where it's supposed to. In other words it's stops working.

The code has a few buttons and they look like this.

b_readiness.onPress = function() {
this.startDrag();
};
b_readiness.onRelease = function() {
this.stopDrag();
if (this._droptarget == "/d_readiness") {
this._x = 173;
this._y = 165.5;

} else {
this._x = 65;
this._y = 232.5;
}
};

Thanks in advance.

The culprit is this line:
[tt]
if (this._droptarget == "/d_readiness")
[/tt]
"/d_readiness" is an absolute path means "_level0.d_readiness". Now your _level0 is not your movie but the hosting movie, therefore it won't work.

"_droptarget" is Flash 4; I wouldn't use it but do it like this:
[tt]
if (this.hitTest(d_readiness))
[/tt]
(And stop using absolute path if I were you.)
