Load External SWF through ComboBox AS3 - actionscript-3

Question

I am trying to create a ComboBox that loads and unloads an external SWF onto stage using ActionScript 3.0 using Flash CS5.
Currently there are 2 list items in the combo box: Home and About.
Upon selecting Home or About option from ComboBox it displays both Home and About SWF at once when selected.
I only want 1 SWF to be displayed only when selected, not all.
menuList.addItem({label:"Choose"});
menuList.addItem({label:"Home",path:"home_load.swf"});
menuList.addItem({label:"About",path:"about.swf"});
menuList.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, Home);
menuList.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, About);
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.unloadAndStop();
function Home(e:Event):void
{
if (e.currentTarget.selectedItem.path)
{
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
//loader.unloadAndStop();
loader.load(new URLRequest("home_load.swf"));
addChild(loader);
//loader.unloadAndStop();
loader.x = 0;
loader.y = 190;
}
}
function About(e:Event):void
{
if (e.currentTarget.selectedItem.path)
{
//loader.unloadAndStop();
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.load(new URLRequest("about.swf"));
addChild(loader);
//loader.unloadAndStop();
loader.x = 0;
loader.y = 190;
}
}

You may have to do addChild after the swf file has completed loading.
//These listeners detect when the file has finished loading, and if the
//correct file is loaded.
swfLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, finishLoading);
swfLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, errorHandler);
//The load method then loads the SWF file into the loader object.
swfLoader.load(my_url);
//This function adds the external SWF to the stage.
function finishLoading(loadEvent:Event) {
addChild(loadEvent.currentTarget.content);
}
//This function displays a message if the file is not found.
function errorHandler(errorEvent:Event):void {
trace("file missing");
}
