How do I: Load external jpegs into MX with loading bar

programming flash
1

Hi,
I am constructing this site which will have 8 topic areas, each of which will have 8 jpegs that I would like to have open in a picture box that will remain in the same position for each topic area.

I would like people to have the option of choosing which jpeg to view so there will be 8 buttons linked to each of the relevant jpeg for each topic area. Make sense?!?

Any ideas what the best way of doing this is?

Thanks!

Craig

erm… forgive me if i’m oversimplifying what you want but:

on(release) {
_root.loader.blank_MC.loadMovie(“http://www.somedotcom.com/my_image.jpg”);
}

where “blank_MC” is the instance name of a new MC (CTRL+F8) with nothing inside of it, located where you want the images to show up. super easy since you want them all in the same place. each button has the same action except the URL is changed.

Ehmm… I think you either forgot to post the link, or attach the file. :stuck_out_tongue:
