You don't need to use _root anyway. Use this or something to keep your code in your swf. There is no need to set values on _root.

I'd be guessing something to do with _root.

Since a loaded swf is no longer _root, it is probably talking to some other clip.

Hi,

I have created a swf with a simple scoring system using this code on a movie clip:

on (release) {
_root.total = _root.total+10;
}
onClipEvent (load) {
if (_root.total=0) {
_root.total = _root.total+_root.total;
}
}

And this on the frame:

onEnterFrame = function () {
     if (_root.score >= 50){
          gotoAndStop (2);
     }
}

This all works fine outside of Xerte but when I put the SWF inside Xerte (I'm using Wizards but I don't think that's the issue) the score doesn't register.

Please could anyone suggest what it might be that Xerte doesn't like?

Thanks in advance.

Deborah
