Actionscript 2 help

Expand Post »

I am trying to make an external .swf file load into a movieclip when a button is clicked. I have this code on my button:

Graphics and Multimedia Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
on(release){
mc_holder.loadMovie("home.swf");
trace ("...");
}
on(release){
mc_holder.loadMovie("home.swf");
trace ("...");
}

and my mc_holder movieclip is on the stage. But when I click the button the trace output shows up but the movie clip does not load in the holder. Is there more to this?
