Re: [Flashcoders] controlling an movie clipo from an external swf (SOLVED)

2009-08-25 Thread Gustavo Duenas 
You were right I google my way in and I put an eventlistener  
(complete) to see when it is loaded and now it is working.

 here is the solution for those interested.

var contactLoader:Loader = new Loader();

contactLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,  
onCompleto);

function onCompleto(e:Event):void{
var utop:MovieClip = contactLoader.content as MovieClip;
utop.buttonX.buttonMode=true;
utop.buttonX.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, closeMe);
function closeMe(e:MouseEvent):void{
removeChild(contactLoader);
}
trace(completo);
}
contactLoader.load(new URLRequest(contactUs.swf));
addChild(contactLoader);
trace(contact);
}//contact Us Function



Regards,

Gus
