To add to the weirdness: this problem only presents itself if I create
the project in Flash 8, so I wonder whether I'm hitting my head against
the new security model. Again, any help would be much appreciated.

Hello--
I am trying to control a movie I load from a remote location. I've
narrowed down my code to the smallest possible number of lines:
ld = new MovieClipLoader();
ld.loadClip(url, mcClip);
obj = new Object();
obj.onLoadComplete = function()
{
mcClip.gotoAndStop (10);
}
ld.addListener(obj)
This code, placed in the actions panel of the root, works with the
exception of the onLoadComplete function. The mcClip is simply an
instance of a movie clip symbol (with no code) placed on the stage. The
loaded movie is just a collection of frames, with no actions associated
to it.
The really bizarre thing is that this works just fine if I run the code
from inside Flash: the movie loads and then it jumps to frame 10, where
it stops.
If I run the SWF inside the standalone player (or inside a browser
plugin on Windows, but not on a Mac), the external movie loads but keeps
looping and there seems to be no way to stop it.
I cannot make sense of this. I've tried searching through the list, but
either this is so obviously wrong that nobody ever had the problem, or I
just don't know what to search for :)
I'd appreciate any pointers!
Thanks,
Marco
