If the movieclip only contains the scrollpane, wy not attach the scrollpane 
directy, instead of having it wrapped in a movieclip?

The scrollpane has a 'complete' event which is triggered when it's content is 
ready to be used, so that might be what you're looking 
for (it's in the docs).
Any particular reason why you're using spContentHolder instead of just 
ScrollPane.content (which is also documented)?

regards,
Muzak
