hi.
i’m trying to build a simple, simple photo gallery with good, old-fashioned, loadMovie(“path/jpegfile.jpg”,target_mc); and, in internet explorer (5.2 for mac – i haven’t even tested on PC yet.), it is particularly buggy. it seems to not want to load all the jpgs at any given time. it loads some and quits. (i double-checked and none have been saved with progressive download).
it works consistently on safari and firefox. the problem seems to be with IE in particular.
perhaps the problem is because i am using loadMovie to load jpgs into targets in swfs that i am simulataneously loading into a base swf into an mc target? could that hang IE up?
originally, i tried to create this gallery using the new Loader component, which was wonderful on the local preview and safari and firefox and would have saved me loads of time with sizing imgs, but – particularly on IE 6 for PC – the IE img resize bugs were enormous, so i gave up.
the long and short: do i have to start again learning how to utilize XML instead or – gasp – embedding the imgs in the actual fla to make this really work? or does anyone know of IE issues with loadMovie and jpgs and any way to get around this?
the gallery in question is at http://www.victoriatorres.com/neubohn/
if you click on PORTFOLIO and then KIDS or LIFESTYLE (or both) you can preview the problems i’ve been having.
any help is greatly appreciated
