I’m trying to load in a sample jpg to a custom class MC. I found this string of code on line, but I’m getting the 2015 error. Here’s were things are going wrong:

```auto
   var imageURLRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("sample.jpg"); 
   var myImageLoader:Loader = new Loader(); 
   myImageLoader.load(imageURLRequest); 
   
   myImageLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, imageLoaded); 
   function imageLoaded(e:Event):void { 
    var myBitmapData:BitmapData = new BitmapData(myImageLoader.width, myImageLoader.height); 
    myBitmapData.draw(myImageLoader); 
    var myBitmap:Bitmap = new Bitmap; 
    myBitmap.bitmapData = myBitmapData; 
    addChild(myBitmap); 
   } 

```

I have the sample.jpg in the same folder as the project files. Thanks in advance.
