Hi,

does anyone know how to dynamically load jpegs into a flash movie using actionscript?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.

- Make an empty mc with an instance name ([color=blue]target[/color]).
- Make a button and give it this AS:

[color=blue]on(release) {  
loadMovie(“picture.jpg”, \_root.target);  
}[/color]

[color=black]Or put the script into the frame action to load it when the movie loads:[/color]

[color=#0000ff]loadMovie(“picture.jpg”, \_root.target);[/color]

[color=black]Of course picture.jpg could be a different path.[/color]
