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; } } -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Alistair Colling Interactive Developer FPP Brand Communications (Newcastle upon Tyne) The Courtyard Dinsdale Place Sandyford Newcastle upon Tyne NE2 1BD Telephone: +44 (0)191 261 6662 Fax: +44 (0)191 233 2511 This transmission is confidential and intended solely for the person or organisation to whom it is addressed.
