Hello brilliant people,  
so here’s what I’m trying to do:

> by selecting radiobutton1, image1 appears.  
> And then…  
> When selecting radiobutton2, image2 appears.  
> and since radiobutton1 is no longer selected (cause there in same group) then image1 goes away.  
> and so on.

I currently am planing on the radiobuttons to = an amount. so it’ll be like a total items type of deal.  
so, what ever radiobutton is selected will send a total to the total box. at same time, I want it to trigger an image to appear.  
(as in: just to show the cost of that radiobutton item.)  
Simple right! :hr:  
thats what I thought.

ps. I don’t want to use imageloader, unless the loader window can be transparent so I can see what is behind it once the image is loaded. I think i would use a MovieClip instead. (image is .gif for a reason)

if this is confusing to anyone, please speak up (a simple, “tell me more” or " :h:" is fine)  
I’ll try and explain it better.
