While the below shows it is technically unfeasible to completely
unload a flex app, that doesn't mean you shouldn't try loading and

browser to crash / lock up.

appreciate this won't suit everyone. It may be possibleto load them on
the same page with JavaScript communication between apps. If there is
a physical overlap between the display areas, eg using z-index of CSS
you may give up the option of 3d acceleration in flash 11 and there
may be issues with display on some operating systems/ browsers

then from the movie.swf I can use back button to load the main movie
again
or unload the movie if the level more the 0
in AS3 I use code
menu.movieBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,loadMovieSwf);
function loadMovieSwf(event:Event)
{
var requestURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest(movie.swf)
var loader:Loader = new Loader()
loader.load(requestURL)
addChildAt(loader)

the problem I'm not able to unload movie from movie.swf I can unload
movie.swf from the main movie by this code
loader.unloadAndStop();
removeChild(_loader);
loader= null;
but if I place this code in movie.swf I get error
it was easy to do it in AS2 just unloadMovie(level)
I'm doing project with many swf files I have to load it from main page and
go back to main page I hope the problem is clear
