I have a folder called images, in it five images named \*image0.jpg \* - _image4.jpg_.

I’ve attached a simple fla which duplicates the MC called, **content** and loads each image into the newly duplicated Movie Clip with a for loop. My problem is fading and preloading in each image. At the moment, the five images just appear.

What’s wrong with my code? The function call to **preload();** seems to be called 5 times but it won’t enter the:

```auto
[COLOR=Blue]this.onEnterFrame [/COLOR] = function()

```

Any ideas?

Cheers

ps. If this line is not commented, only the last image fades in & gets bordered.

```auto
content._alpha = 0;

```
