Simple Flash Navigation Question

Question

Hi - great to see all these thoughts and comments.  I am making some good headway with AS3 but I'm stuck at the moment trying something really simple:  I want to load the home.swf when the site first loads.  
I am using this script for my buttons and it works fine:
home_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, home);
function home(myevent:MouseEvent):void {
  var myURL:URLRequest=new URLRequest("home.swf");
  myLoader.load(myURL);
  myLoader.x = 0
  myLoader.y = 150
  buttonMode=true
  addChild(myLoader);
What do I need to change to the script so it loads "automatically" in the main.swf when the user first comes to the website? 

Answer 1

If you don't want it to have to wait for user interaction then take it out of the event handler.
  var myURL:URLRequest=new URLRequest("home.swf");
  myLoader.load(myURL);
  myLoader.x = 0
  myLoader.y = 150
  buttonMode=true
  addChild(myLoader);
Not sure what the buttonMode=true is doing in there...
And you can shorten up one bit:
myLoader.load(new URLRequest("home.swf");
Also I don't see where you have created your myLoader instance. I'm sure you have some code where that is created outside the event handler. So you will need that bit too.
