I can not seem to find any info on the problem I’m now having. Using the below code will not work for some reason. It refuses to load the jpeg. If I substitute an actual path, it works great. Also, I can trace varFromAbove and it traces fine, and to make matters worse, this code will work if I use loadMovie. Any ideas? Thanks!

```auto

function loadImages(varFromAbove) {
	
			var myLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
			
			var myListener = new Object();
			myListener.onLoadInit = function () {
				
			}
				
			myLoader.addListener(myListener);
			myLoader.loadClip(varFromAbove, _root.largeImage);
				
	
}

```
