Loading a image over thumbnails

1

Hey Everyone,

Please help. Ive almost got what ive been trying to do for weeks.
i have a photo gallery from on of the “Kirupa” tutorials using xml, but this ones with a 5X4 grid.

I want only the grid to up on stage and when you click the thumbnail i want the larger image to show up over the grid!!and then a “back button” thats returns to the grid of images and so on.

I have everything in place i just need some help getting the depths right and a back btn back to grid of thumbs.

Ive been on this for weeks please help out.

This is my code so far.

cheers :worried: ck

thumbarray = [];
columns = 5;
spacex =92
spacey=60

function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
xmlNode = this.firstChild;
image = [];
thumbnails = [];
total = xmlNode.childNodes.length;
for (i=0; i<total; i++) {
image* = xmlNode.childNodes*.childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
thumbnails* = xmlNode.childNodes*.childNodes[1].firstChild.nodeValue;
}
sload()

} else {
    content = "file not loaded!";
}

}
function drawSquare(thumb, depth, x, y, w, h) {
var mc = thumb.createEmptyMovieClip(“thumb”+depth, depth);
//mc._x = x;
//mc._y = y;
//mc.lineStyle();
//mc.beginFill(colour)
//mc.lineTo(w, 0);
//mc.lineTo(w, h);
//mc.lineTo(0, h);
//mc.endFill();
return mc;
}

xmlData = new XML();
xmlData.ignoreWhite = true;
xmlData.onLoad = loadXML;
xmlData.load(“image.xml”);
