Cheers Eamonn, I have checked that article already but I couldn't find an answer, I guess I need a more nuts and bolts answer :)
Thanks

Subject: [Flashcoders] Can't remove loaded SWF AS3

Hi there, I'm aware that if you load a SWF in AS3 it will still exist
unless you null it's instance. I'm loading in an external SWF but I
can't seem to get rid of it!

If anyone can let me know soon I would be super-grateful.
Thanks!

Here's my code:


        private function startLoad(s:String):void
        {
                try{
                        mLoader = null;
                }
                catch(e:*){
                        trace("unalble to null loader");
                }
                try{
                        mLoader.unload();
                }
                catch(e:*){
                        trace("unable to unload as was nulll");
                }
                mLoader = new Loader();
                mRequest = new URLRequest(s);
                mLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,
onCompleteHandler);
                
mLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS,
onProgressHandler);
                mLoader.load(mRequest);
        }

        private function onCompleteHandler(loadEvent:Event):void
        {
                loadedSWF = null;
                trace("loaded");
                anim.contentLoaded(loadEvent.currentTarget.content);
                loadedSWF  = loadEvent.currentTarget.content;
                if (urlStr=="people.swf"){
                        loadedSWF.x = -345;
                }else{
                        loadedSWF.x = -345;
                        
                }
        }
