I have 24 movie clips on the stage: my\_menu.image\_holder\_mc1 thru my\_menu.image\_holder\_mc24. I want to load an image in each one. How do I identify the holder which to add a child.

The Code I have so far is…

```auto
for (var i:Number=1; i<=24;i++){ 
var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();
myLoader.name = "image_"+i;
myLoader.load(new URLRequest("images/image_"+i+".jpg"));
//WHAT GOES HERE?//.addChild(myLoader);
}

```

Thanks in advance for the help, I’m not a pro, and just picking up AS3.
