Controlling an external SWF

Hello,

I have a SWF that is loaded into my main movie via XML. What I would like to do is determine the length of the SWF within my main movie, and when the loaded SWF has completed, have the main movie move onto the next SWF.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Doug

you can use the content property of your loader (cast as a movieclip) to reference your loaded swf's main timeline (after loading is complete).

Hello,

Could you provide an example of how to do that?

Here is the code I am working with... what I want to happen is after "content.swf" finishes playing, I want to load the next movie... even if someone could tell me how to determine when content.swf has finished playing, that would help immensely.

Thanks!
