This line:
_root.Test.loadMovie("clip.swf", _root);
Should either be:
Test.loadMovie("clip.swf");
or
loadMovie("clip.swf", Test);
(and drop the use of "_root" gollygoshdarnnit!)
You have instead combined both methods. By stating the movieClip name first
and then LoadMovie, the second paramter is not needed. If you don't state the
movieClip being loaded into first and then LoadMovie, then you do need the
second paramter to tell it where to load the movie clip in to.
