This depends on how they have used the "loadmovie" actionscript. Does the
movie load as new layer, ie layer 0,1,2 etc or does it load into target
movie.

I suspect that the latter is done, which means that although older plugins
will work, to a certain degree, only the latest plugin will work.

Also check that the moviebeing loaded has a play event on the first frame of
scene1 even if you only have one frame start with a play and end with a
stop. Flash does get confused especially when referencing movies between
layers.

Subject: FN-FORUM flash 'load movie' problem


Hi all,

I have been dumped with a flash problem as the flash team are away and
today is the launch day for the site...clever aye?

anyway, they have done the scenes as 'loadmovie' which I presume is done
to make loading quicker? One of the onloads doesn't load the first time it
is selected to, however it does the second...any ideas? The site is
http://www.portfoliodesign.net and the problem resides when you select the
London location.

Also, if you view it in netscape on the mac, there is a font mapping
problem...any ideas around this. Instead of the text intended to be viewed,
you simply get what wappears to be like html code.

The Flash version is 5.0

Any help would be greatly appreciated as I'm gonna get my ass kicked if I
don't fix this baby!!!
