If it is a movie clip you want to instantiate then you have to use:
_root.attachMovie(libraryID, instanceName, depth);
The class associated with it will construct and the onLoad event will
trigger if it is being listened to.
this indeed works, but then i can't pass any values to the constructor.
Is there any way to attachMovie and at the same time pass values to it?
I supose I can always refer to it afterwards on the time line and call a
custom function... but it would be nice to use the constructor's
functionality.
I had hoped I could generate new instances just by calling a constructor
instead of attaching it to something; but i guess logically i it needs to be
attached to be "on the timeline". Correct me if I am wrong.
Thanks!
