Player into which the movie will be loaded. The target movie clip is replaced by the loaded
SWF file or image.

Example
The following example shows how to use the
MovieClipLoader.loadClip() method by
creating a handler for the
onLoadInit event and then making the request.
You should either place the following code directly into a frame action on a Timeline, or paste
it into a class that extends MovieClip. This code also expects an image named YourImage.jpg
to exist in the same directory as the compiled SWF file.
var container:MovieClip = createEmptyMovieClip("container",
getNextHighestDepth());
var mcLoader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
mcLoader.addListener(this);
mcLoader.loadClip("YourImage.jpg", container);
function onLoadInit(mc:MovieClip) {
trace("onLoadInit: " + mc);
}
If your SWF file includes a version 2 component, use the version 2 component's
DepthManager class instead of the
MovieClip.getNextHighestDepth() method, which is
used in this example.
