Author Transitions between SWF's

I have 7 swf's that I want to load into a main movie. I have a clip that loads
the movies properly. I also have buttons that load the movies. However, I want
to have a smooth transition between the movies. For instance, I have an intro,
main content, and outro in every one of my swf's. when a button is clicked, I
want that movie to play the intro until the actionscript says stop(). And thats
my content. But, if any button is clicked, I want it to play the outro, then
load the next movie.

Im thinking, in my external swfs just add "stop()" whenever I want it to stop.
Then have a stop() at the last frame of the movie.

Then in the main movie, have on button click, play the movie that is currently
loading (which should take the movie from the first stop to the last frame and
stop) then load a movie....

so on (release) {

container.play();
container.loadmovie("blah blah");

}

Any help ?!?!?1

Have you thought of using 2 Clips??? then you have seperate clips with 2 seperate movies... so your transition will be smoother...

Bigpomp81,

I realize it has been a while since you made this post, so you may already
have found a tutorial on this. I have been struggling with the same problem
until I found this helpful tutorial:

I hope it helps you.
