Duplicate movie but with dynamic clips

programming flash

I’m using this code to create a row of movies:


var xPos:Number = 0;
for (y=0; y<5; y++) {
	var emptycontainer:MovieClip = _root.holder.createEmptyMovieClip("empcontainer"+y, y);
	var container:MovieClip = _root.holder["empcontainer"+(y)].attachMovie("testclip"+y, "instance"+y, this.getNextHighestDepth());

	//Position the loaded clip based on xPos variable
	container._x = xPos;
	//increase the xPos variable by the width of the movie just loaded.
	xPos += container._width;
	emptycontainer.movnum = y;
	emptycontainer.onPress = function () {
    trace(this.movnum);
}
	
}

Is there a way I can easily create an identical row of moviclips with button functionality easily (i.e holder2)? I have a feeling duplicateMovieClip doesn’t support dynamically loaded content. I intend to switch the attachMovie command with a loadMovie to load Jpegs instead of movieclips. It would be good if I don’t have to load them twice.
