movieclip accessibility

HI,

I am facing a problem with accessibility of my application.

I have a movieclip on stage. It's accessibility name is "movieClip 1" and it has a simpe code on press event of it.
This works fine.

But when I load an image on it:

mc1.loadMovie("cat.jpg");

Browser takes it as unlabeled button.

Can anyone tell me why its taking it as unlabled ?

Thanks...

I’ve duplicated what you are trying to do and have not found it a problem.

What I think your problem is:
You have not named a movieclip "mc1" in the properties box. Flash needs to know "what, where and when" when it comes to importing anything into something.

"Unlabeled" I’ve not come across this myself but I think that this means the place holder "mc1" does not exists. That’s what makes me think you have not named the movieclip you are trying to load the image into.

I hope this helps.
