Re: FN-FORUM: Cant unloadMovie(); in flash?

date posted 13th March 2006 20:41

been a while since i dealt with this but an idea would be instead of
the button unloading the movie try making the button load another
movie into the holding movieclip. if you load "empty.swf" into the
same clip as "big.swf" it could do it..
