createEmptyMovieClip & functions

[enn]

Hi!

Could somebody explane to me why following code does work:
---------------------------------------------------------------
click_mc = this.createEmptyMovieClip("testClip_mc", 1);
click_mc.beginFill(0x999999, 100);
click_mc.moveTo(100, 100);
click_mc.lineTo(200, 100);
click_mc.lineTo(200, 120);
click_mc.lineTo(100, 120);
click_mc.lineTo(100,100);
click_mc.endFill();

click_mc.onRollOver = function(){
this._alpha = 20;
}

click_mc.onRollOut = function (){
this._alpha = 100;
}
---------------------------------------------------------------

but why this code does not work:
---------------------------------------------------------------
click_mc2 = this.createEmptyMovieClip("testClip_mc2", 2);
click_mc2.loadMovie("./th/2.jpg");
click_mc2._y = 50;
click_mc2._x = 50;

click_mc2.onRollOver = function(){
this._alpha = 20;
}

click_mc2.onRollOut = function(){
this._alpha = 100;
}
---------------------------------------------------------------

The difference is that first code does draw MovieClip by him self. And
assigned functions do work. Second code creates empty movieclip
and then loads jpg into it. And then assigned functions do not work :(

What shoud I do to get second code to work? Flash MX 2004 in use.

thanx,
enn

Maybe when the jpg arrives as a replacement movie clip that the rollOver/Out
actions are lost ? Try waiting for the clip to load fully, then set them.
