Movie Clips work oddly in Browser

I've created a web page with a .swf file embedded in it. From a button in that
file I can load a movie clip (which is a drop down menu (saved as a .swf file))
then when I click on the drop down menu to show a "product area" movie clip it
does not appear... they are not on top of each other but rather side by side...
This works well when I "test" my movie with the Flash Player, but does not work
in the browser. The first movie clip works fine in the browser but the second
one does not. Am using the latest browsers and Flash 8 Pro.

AScript for 1st Button:
on (release) {
targetDropDown.loadMovie("drpDwn_Cleansers.swf");
}

AScript for 2nd Button:
on (release) {
_root.targetProduct.loadMovie("prod_Cleans_1.swf");
}

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Can you post a link to the site? It's easier to check it that way.
