Hi,

i am trying to create a slideshow in fmx 2004, at the mo i am doing it with the images in mysql db, then i pull them out via a show image page. Is this the best method or can flash do it better?

Anyway i can’t get this code to load the image:

function positionIt() {  
this.\_x = 50;  
this.\_y = 50;  
}  
myLoadVars = new LoadVars();  
myLoadVars.load(“loadImages.php”);  
Photos = new Array();  
myLoadVars.onLoad = function (success) {  
if (success) {  
Photos = this.photoIds.split(",");  
this.createEmptyMovieClip(“myjpg”, 1);  
var link = “showimage.php?ID=”;  
link += Photos[0];  
myjpg.onComplete = positionIt();  
myjpg.loadjpg(link);  
}  
};

any help would be most appreciated.

thanks

ash
