Dynamically loading a flash movie from a flash movie

Question

I have 2 mxml files, lets say main.mxml and child.mxml. Now lets say I want to load child.mxml inside main.mxml and pass it a complex object as a parameter. How would I go about doing this in AS3/Flex 3?

I have tried to search for this on Google and SO but either I am not searching with the right keywords or there is no info (unlikely).

Cheers

EDIT: I am not looking for the mxml to be JIT compiled, loading the compiled mxml as swf is fine.

You want to do this using Modules. You can keep main.mxml as your root Application but child.mxml needs to be defined a Module component. You can then use ModuleLoader to load the child app. Here's a good place to get started:
