Form loaded into main movie doesn't work

Hi

I have created a main swf file which holds a movie container which other swf's load into. One of the sections has a form in it. When I preview this section on its own the form works, but when I preview through the main swf file (or online) the text fields cannot be typed into. How can I fix this? Files can be downloaded from;
www.fullfatdesigns.co.uk/files.zip

or you can view the site as it is online
www.fullfatdesigns.co.uk

Is it because the form loads into a masked area??

Thanks
Wayne

That might be it. Take out the mask and see what happens.

Re: Form loaded into main movie doesn't work

The only problem is, the masked area is where all the sections load into, through a transition in the main .swf

Do you think there may be a different work-around for this problem, as changing the mask could mean a site re-design...

Thanks

Fixed it. I re-embedded the fonts and now it works. I must have forgotten to do this once I changed the font in the form.
