    Exclamation Loading external swf's into a movieclip

    Hi everyone,

    I have 3 different swf's (banners) and all of them interect with each other. I have to make them start together. So I have to do something like, loading the first and stop, then loading the second and stop, and once the third is loaded, all of them start.

    The thing is, how do I do it? I'm kinda new in Flash and I don't even know how to load this 3 swf's into a movieclip, which is what I think that must be done.

    So, it's basically 2 things:

    - How to load all these banners inside a movieclip
    - How to make them start together

    I know I must be doing something uterly stupid, cause I have imported a swf into library and it was a disaster. Btw, I could already do the preloaders for each swf.

    Any help would be deeply appreciated.

    Lis

    Default Try this link

    This is where I learned it:

    Great demonstration, and source to download:

    Keep going, the first example is simple on how to load one swf then it gets into combining them. I hope this helps.

    Default One more thing

    If you want swfs to play side by side -create holder movieclips separately with separate loaders. (unless there is a better way)


    I am not sure how complicated the interactivity is that you need, but you can use a timer to control when they display or you can easily create buttons to toggle the banner's visibility.
