Hello,

I’m sort of new to flex and right now i’m setting up the stage.

1. i have a combo box that feature 3 different import methods
2. i have an input field for an URL

Now you can import:

1. a Flickr page and it will display the main image from that page in the flex project.
2. a YouTube movie with it’s own player
3. a Screenshot from any url you input using an aspx application

Now my question is:  
Since i need to use two different components to display the things loaded, how do i switch from a VideoDisplay if the youtube import is selected to a SWFLoader if the other 2 import options are selected?
