you are loading the ticker movieclips in the same container. which will empty the current content when loading of new content starts. o there will be noting visible during the loading time of next ticker. Instead you should load the new ticker in a new movieclip each time and on load complete event of the new ticker remove the old one.

Thanks for replying. Yes, you are right "which will empty the current content when loading of new content starts." On parent swf in Event.Complete, I remove the old child swf and replace it with new child swf. I would like to explain it further. There are three possibilities: 1) ticker on (I am able to do this by moving ticker to stage by changing ticker_mc.y=160) 2) ticker off (I am able to do this as well by moving ticker off stage, again by changing ticker_mc.y=194). 3) Here I am facing problem. If I turn on the ticker and go to next child swf, ticker goes off or if I turn on ticker on child swf 2 and come back to child swf 1 again ticker goes off. Can I do it like this? Suppose I load child swf 1, turn on the ticker, now ticker_mc.y should be 160, hold this value in a variable (var tickerPos) and pass this value to next child swf and say ticker_mc.y = tickerPos. Will it work? Can you guide as to how can I write this code?

If I write the following code in Event.COMPLETE function, I am able to trace the position of tickerMaskMC (located on child swf) based on whether I have clicked on or off button (values in the trace: 160 and 194). Is there anyway I can pass these values to next loading child swf and position the tickerMaskMC accordingly?? I am trying but I keep on getting error 1009 and 1010. Please help.

var tickerPos:uint = thisMC.tickerMaskMC.y;
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, onEnterFrame);
function onEnterFrame (event:Event):void {
	tickerPos = thisMC.tickerMaskMC.y;
	trace(thisMC.tickerMaskMC.y);
