Hi there,

I’ve done the [Fading grind tutorial [COLOR=black]from Voetsjoeba[/COLOR]](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/fadegrid.htm) and it was well done.  
But i’m trying to load the images from an external file, for example from an xml file, or other way that it was possible, but i’m not figuring out how…

I’ve added this line code into the AS, but it didn’t work when i upload the file and try to access online:

```auto
_root.createEmptyMovieClip("image", 999);
for (i=1; i<11; i++) {
 image.loadMovie("/Imagens/I"+random(i)+".jpg", i);
}

```

If some one could help me i’ll be very glad!!  
And sorry about my english…

Thanks in advance  
see ya
