I’m endeavoring to write this code that listens for an image that has been loaded. In other

words I have three arrays:

var Cars:Array=new Array(“Mercedes.jpg”, “BMW.jpg”, “Hummer.jpg”);

var Homes:Array=new Array(“Miami.jpg”,“LosAngeles.jpg”,“NewYork.jpg”);

var Casinos:Array=new Array(“LasVegas.jpg”,“AtlanticCity.jpj”,“MoheganSun.jpg”);

My container mc has the instance name of “imageholder”.

now here’s what I’m trying to do: everytime an image is fully loaded into “imageholder” from one

of these three arrays, I want a particular action to run. For instance, if any image from the

Cars array is 100% loaded into “imageholder”, I want some function I will write to run,like

function CarsisLoaded(){  
someaction;  
}

and so on…if an image from the Homes array is 100% loaded into “imageholder”, I want a

different function to run…

so know I need a listener object, and may have to use the EventDispatcher or AsBroadcast to do

thi. I need some help with the code if possible.

Lastly, I need the code to work in Flash 6 and above…

thank you in advance
