Image loader to movieclip from extern .as

programming flash

Hi all!

I’m new here at Kirupa and also pretty noob when it comes to AS3.

I’m working on a slideshowproject (like all newbees do!) and I’m stuck trying to load an image into a movieclip.

I have my loader in a class called “Image.as” and by doing some traces I can see it works fine. But when i try to send the image to the movieclip (which I have named “_mc”) I have on the stage I just get the “Acces of undifined property _mc”. What am I missing? After the file has loaded from the Internet the Image.as calls the function imageLoaded:

function imageLoaded(e:Event):void {
    //Load billedet
    _mc.addChild(pictLdr);
    trace("If you see this, the file has loaded correctly.");
    }

In my .fla I have done this to add the empty movieclip to the stage:

var _mc:MovieClip = new MovieClip;
//Add _mc to stage
addChild(_mc);
_mc.width = 550;
_mc.height = 400;
 
var imageloader:Image = new Image;

I think I’m too old to learn anything new! ;( Been stuck for days!

If you need to see all of the code I can copy/paste it. It’s not that large.
