loading a .swf from inside another movie

I'm trying to load a short movie from inside my main movie and then have it disappear when the user clicks on it. I have code that loads it up fine, but I can't get the main program to recognize any click events. This is what I have so far:

**************
this.createEmptyMovieClip("error_mc", 1);
this.error_mc.loadMovie("error.swf");
this.error_mc.onRelease = function(){
error_mc.unloadMovie();
}
*************

Any ideas on how to make the loaded .swf recognize click events to that it can be unloaded?

thanks.

an easy fix would be to just put the onRelease code in your external movie.

this.onRelease = function(){
this.unloadMovie();
}

and you wouldn't even need your main movie to have to watch or look for any events.
