I’m loading the same image into an empty movie clip over and over again. I want the image to be properly loaded each time rather than using the cached version as the image changes (it is updated by a webcam). So to do this I’m using:

ImageContainer.loadMovie("/Image.jpg?" + random(9999999));

but this doesn’t seem to work as the image is exactly the same each time it loads (Flash MX04 Pro)

any ideas

thanks all :love:
