Hi,

pls somebody help me.

Im trying to load external image to created movieclip with instance name my\_img:

var myMCL:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();  
myMCL.addListener(this);  
function onLoadStart(mc:MovieClip) {  
trace("onLoadStart: " + mc);  
}  
function onLoadComplete(mc:MovieClip) {  
trace("onLoadComplete: " + mc);  
}  
myMCL.loadClip(“foto1.jpg”, my\_img);

Its not working (in root it is). Can i use MovieClipLoader only in root? When i use this.createEmptyMovieClip(“my\_img”, 0); its working too, but i dont want to do it with creating new emptymovieclip. i hope you will understand.

thank u.
