Theodore,
How was holder_lesson created? If it has been scaled up from some
other mc, the loaded movie will also be scaled up. Best to use a
non-scaled clip as a holder. AS2 example:
this.createEmptyMovieClip(holder_lesson,this.getNextHighestDepth());
holder_lesson._x = 10; // or wherever
And if you are loading it into a clip that you've set _xscale + _yscale on,
the movie replaces those properties when it's loaded. loadMovie essentially
replaces the movie it's called from, wiping its properties.

Dynamic properties do get wiped, but standard ones are preserved, as Marc

Can you use the base attribute in the params to set somewhere that you
can then use relative paths.

Hi,
i think this applies to using an html file in location a loading an swf from
location b.
Seeing Amanda has two different basepaths, setting the base to nr 1 will
confuse nr 2 and vice versa.
Copying everything to the same directory like Bob said seems a good and
simple solution though:).

Thanks for your replies! It seems that, despite my fondest hopes, there is
no easy way to retro-fit hundreds of SWFs originally built without this
loadMovie() requirement in mind.
Cheers and thanks :-)
