proplem with LocalConnection() timing

Question

Hi there,
I am doing and hybrid site, i have 2 movie in an htm page,
one is the navigation and other will have images , i have use
LocalConnection()
to let the other movie tell the navigation to go to a certain
frame to mark the page is located. 
Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.
here is the adress for the Dev site: 
the test site

only the 2 first buttons of the botom works.
just try to refresh the page and see that the navigation
status don't fuction.
If you are luky you'll see it work on loading url.

here is the url for the navigation check the last tree
buttons (without link yet) 
the url
of swf

After running some test i realice that when i empty cache it
works but thats it.
I beleive it is to do with the fact that the image SWF loads
first on the page and then the navigation.
And since is the navigation that receives it is not present
when receiving.

I would really appreciate some help.

Solved it by creating a Empty_Mc and loading anothermovieClip 15 frames later with the : sending_lc.send("lc_name","methodToExecute")It solved the timing problem.

use the sharedobject if you want to communicate between twoswfs that may not both be in browser windows at the sametime.
