Hello. I have am getting the error and I am hoping someone can help me out here!:beer2:

Error #2044: Unhandled IOErorEvent:. textError #2035: URL Not Found.  
option images/1a.jpg

I can’t for the life of me figure out why I am getting this error because in the same programming I have the same picture loaded in a different place and it comes up fine. And I don’t know what it means by “option”.

Here is the code the error is comming from:

rawImage = xd.subject[subNum].imgURL;  
imageHolder = new MovieClip;  
imageLoader = new Loader;  
imageLoader.load(new URLRequest(rawImage));  
imageHolder.addChild(imageLoader);  
imageHolder.x = 128;  
imageHolder.y = 165;  
addChild(imageHolder);

As I said earlier, I have the same picture loading later in the programming. But I am loading it differently because in this case it loads when a button is clicked. In the code I typed above I was using it to load the picture withough any button click.

I am using XML for all of the pictures.

Do you see something wrong? Or do you have any ideas on what I could check to further investigate the situation?

Thanks for any help you have to offer!
